Pointers for variables all need to be in the same address space for
correct compilation. Therefore ensure that even if an `alloca` is
created in a different address space, it is casted to the default
address space before its value is used.
This is necessary for the amdgpu target and others where the default
address space for `alloca`s is not 0.
For example the following code compiles incorrectly when not casting the
address space to the default one:
```rust
fn f(p: *const i8 /* addrspace(0) */) -> *const i8 /* addrspace(0) */ {
let local = 0i8; /* addrspace(5) */
let res = if cond { p } else { &raw const local };
res
}
```
results in
```llvm
%local = alloca addrspace(5) i8
%res = alloca addrspace(5) ptr
if:
; Store 64-bit flat pointer
store ptr %p, ptr addrspace(5) %res
else:
; Store 32-bit scratch pointer
store ptr addrspace(5) %local, ptr addrspace(5) %res
ret:
; Load and return 64-bit flat pointer
%res.load = load ptr, ptr addrspace(5) %res
ret ptr %res.load
```
For amdgpu, `addrspace(0)` are 64-bit pointers, `addrspace(5)` are
32-bit pointers.
The above code may store a 32-bit pointer and read it back as a 64-bit
pointer, which is obviously wrong and cannot work. Instead, we need to
`addrspacecast %local to ptr addrspace(0)`, then we store and load the
correct type.
