Looks like there's a fix posted for LLVM in: https://reviews.llvm.org/D101657

Though trying to test it in QEMU, I'm hitting some assertion failure
booting a kernel (even without that patch to LLVM):
qemu-system-ppc: ../../hw/pci/pci.c:253: pci_bus_change_irq_level:
Assertion `irq_num >= 0' failed.
That's with
QEMU emulator version 5.2.0 (Debian 1:5.2+dfsg-9)

I didn't see anything in https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/ about it,
but figured I'd share in case that assertion failure looked familiar
to anyone.
