// In NVPTX, NVPTXFrameLowering will emit following instruction at the beginning
// of a MachineFunction.
//
//   mov %SPL, %depot
//   cvta.local %SP, %SPL
//
// Because Frame Index is a generic address and alloca can only return generic
// pointer, without this pass the instructions producing alloca'ed address will
// be based on %SP. NVPTXLowerAlloca tends to help replace store and load on
// this address with their .local versions, but this may introduce a lot of
// cvta.to.local instructions. Performance can be improved if we avoid casting
// address back and forth and directly calculate local address based on %SPL.
// This peephole pass optimizes these cases, for example
//
// It will transform the following pattern
//    %0 = LEA_ADDRi64 %VRFrame, 4
//    %1 = cvta_to_local_yes_64 %0
//
// into
//    %1 = LEA_ADDRi64 %VRFrameLocal, 4
//
// %VRFrameLocal is the virtual register name of %SPL
//
