For a default visibility external linkage definition, dso_local is set for ELF
-fno-pic/-fpie and COFF and Mach-O. Since default clang -cc1 for ELF is similar
to -fpic ("PIC Level" is not set), this nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
To make emitted IR similar, ELF -cc1 -fpic will default to -fno-semantic-interposition,
which sets dso_local for default visibility external linkage definitions.
To make this flip smooth and enable future (dso_local as definition default),
this patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `.
Temporarily revert commit 04abbb3a78186aa92809866b43217c32cba90b71
due to regressions in some HIP apps due backend issues revealed by
this change.
Will re-commit it when backend issues are fixed.
Some targets need special LLVM calling convention for CUDA kernel.
This patch does that through a TargetCodeGenInfo hook.
It only affects amdgcn target.

This reverts r328795 which introduced an issue with referencing __global__
