Singapuram Sanjay Srivallabh 188053af5e Remove debug metadata from copied instruction to prevent GPUModule verification failure
Summary:
**Remove debug metadata from instruction to be copied to prevent the source file's debug metadata being copied into GPUModule and eventually failing Module verification and ASM string codegeneration.**

When copying the instruction onto the Module meant for the GPU, debug metadata attached to an instruction causes all related metadata to be pulled into the Module, including the DICompileUnit, which is not listed in llvm.dbg.cu of the Module. This fails the verification of the Module and generation of the ASM string.

The only debug metadata of the instruction, the DebugLoc, is unset by this patch.

This patch reattempts https://reviews.llvm.org/D35630 by targeting only those instructions that are to end up in a Module meant for the GPU.

Polly - Polyhedral optimizations for LLVM
-----------------------------------------
http://polly.llvm.org/

Polly uses a mathematical representation, the polyhedral model, to represent and
transform loops and other control flow structures. Using an abstract
representation it is possible to reason about transformations in a more general
way and to use highly optimized linear programming libraries to figure out the
optimal loop structure. These transformations can be used to do constant
propagation through arrays, remove dead loop iterations, optimize loops for
cache locality, optimize arrays, apply advanced automatic parallelization, drive
vectorization, or they can be used to do software pipelining.
