[Mesa-dev] [PATCH v3 01/19] nir: add load/store_global intrinsics

[Karol Herbst]

OpenCL kernels have raw pointers to global memory, so we need
instructions to load/store in order to dereference these pointers.
In some ways similar to other load/store intrinsics, but rather
than taking an offset as a src argument, they take a raw pointer
value (which can be 32b or 64b depending on the memory model).
