[GitHub] [tvm] kparzysz-quic commented on pull request #9138: [LLVM] Make changes needed for opaque pointers

   LLVM IR is eliminating types in pointers, so there will only be `ptr` for a pointer type (i.e. pointers will be "opaque"), instead of `i32*` or `float*`.  This will require passing pointer type in addition to the pointer itself to a bunch of LLVM IR creation functions, plus functions like `getPointerElementType` will be removed.
   
   This is an ongoing change in LLVM, but it's a pervasive one with a lot of impact on downstream consumers,
