Const/local/shared address spaces are all < 4GB and we can always use
32-bit pointers to access them. This has substantial performance impact
on kernels that uses shared memory for intermediary results.
The feature is disabled by default.

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

Fix ABI handling for function
returning bool -- use st.param.b32 to return the value
and use ld.param.b32 in caller to load the return value.

The new target machines are:
nvptx (old ptx32) => 32-bit PTX
nvptx64 (old ptx64) => 64-bit PTX
The sources are based on the internal NVIDIA NVPTX back-end, and
contain more functionality than the current PTX back-end currently
provides.
