Translate the selected parallel loop body into a ptx string and run it with the
cuda driver API. We limit this preliminary implementation to target the
following special test cases:
- Support only 2-dimensional parallel loops with or without only one innermost
non-parallel loop.
- Support write memory access to only one array in a SCoP.
The patch was committed with smaller changes to the build system:
There is now a flag to enable gpu code generation explictly. This was required
as we need the llvm.codegen() patch applied on the llvm sources, to compile this
feature correctly. Also, enabling gpu code generation does not require cuda.
This requirement was removed to allow 'make polly-test' runs, even without an
installed cuda runtime.

The Apple linker fails by default, if some function calls can not be resolved at
link time. However, all functions that are part of LLVM itself will not be
linked into Polly, but will be provided by the compiler that Polly is loaded
into. Hence, during linking we need to ignore failures due to unresolved
function calls.
