5674a3c880 Fixed a number of typos
I went over the output of the following mess of a command:

(ulimit -m 2000000; ulimit -v 2000000; git ls-files -z |
 parallel --xargs -0 cat | aspell list --mode=none --ignore-case |
 grep -E '^[A-Za-z][a-z]*$' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n |
 grep -vE '.{25}' | aspell pipe -W3 | grep : | cut -d' ' -f2 | less)

and proceeded to spend a few days looking at it to find probable typos
and fixed a few hundred of them in all of the llvm project (note, the
ones I found are not anywhere near all of them, but it seems like a
good start).

8d27be8dba [OpenCL] Add global_device and global_host address spaces
This patch introduces 2 new address spaces in OpenCL: global_device and global_host
which are a subset of a global address space, so the address space scheme will be
looking like:

```
generic->global->host
                          ->device
             ->private
             ->local
constant
```

Justification: USM allocations may be associated with both host and device memory. We
want to give users a way to tell the compiler the allocation type of a USM pointer for
optimization purposes. (Link to the Unified Shared Memory extension:
https://github.com/intel/llvm/blob/sycl/sycl/doc/extensions/USM/cl_intel_unified_shared_memory.asciidoc)

Before this patch USM pointer could be only in opencl_global
address space, hence a device backend can't tell if a particular pointer
points to host or device memory. On FPGAs at least we can generate more
efficient hardware code if the user tells us where the pointer can point -
being able to distinguish between these types of pointers at compile time
allows us to instantiate simpler load-store units to perform memory
transactions.
