Description

There's currently two issues:

- we don't cover nearly enough intrinsics
- memory attributes (argmemonly, readonly, etc) have changed in LLVM 16 (https://reviews.llvm.org/D135780)

Research direction

Start by locating the intrinsic function attribute handling in GPUCompiler.jl and review the linked LLVM 16 change, D135780. The work is done when more intrinsics are covered and the memory attributes reflect the LLVM 16 behavior.
