Description
```llvm
target triple = "spir64-unknown-unknown"
define spir_kernel void @kernel() {
%1 = freeze i32 undef
ret void
}
```
```
InvalidInstruction: Can't translate llvm instruction:
%1 = freeze i32 undef
[Src: ../lib/SPIRV/SPIRVWriter.cpp:1702 ]
```
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the reproducing LLVM IR snippet and the failure reported at lib/SPIRV/SPIRVWriter.cpp:1702. Trace how the translator handles the freeze instruction and compare that path with nearby instruction handling. Done means the snippet no longer raises InvalidInstruction and translates successfully.
