The AMDGPUIndirectAddressing pass was previously responsible for
lowering private loads and stores to indirect addressing instructions.
However, this pass was buggy and way too complicated. The only
advantage it had over the new simplified code was that it saved one
instruction per direct write to private memory. This optimization
likely has a minimal impact on performance, and we may be able
to duplicate it using some other transformation.
For the private address space, we now:
1. Lower private loads/store to Register(Load|Store) instructions
2. Reserve part of the register file as 'private memory'
3. After regalloc lower the Register(Load|Store) instructions to
MOV instructions that use indirect addressing.

| How to organize the lit tests |
+==============================================================================+
- If you write a test for matching a single DAG opcode or intrinsic, it should
go in a file called {opcode_name,intrinsic_name}.ll (e.g. fadd.ll)
- If you write a test that matches several DAG opcodes and checks for a single
ISA instruction, then that test should go in a file called {ISA_name}.ll (e.g.
bfi_int.ll
- For all other tests, use your best judgement for organizing tests and naming
the files.
+==============================================================================+
| Naming conventions |
+==============================================================================+
- Use dash '-' and not underscore '_' to separate words in file names, unless
the file is named after a DAG opcode or ISA instruction that has an
underscore '_' in its name.
