I will try fixing that.

The CUDA kernel calling convention should be dropped in all DRE's since it is 
invisible to the user.

Subject: [PATCH] D44747: Set calling convention for CUDA kernel

Here's a small snippet of code that previously used to compile and work:

```
template <typename T>
__global__ void EmptyKernel(void) { }

struct Dummy {
  /// Type definition of the EmptyKernel kernel entry point
  typedef void (*EmptyKernelPtr)();
  EmptyKernelPtr Empty() { return EmptyKernel<void>; } }; ``` AFAICT,  it's 
currently impossible to apply __global__ to pointers, so there's no way to make 
the code above work with this patch applied.
