hliao added a comment. Besides the unpromotable `alloca` issue due to indirect accesses, such coercion to GLOBAL pointer directly is not safe as, in HIP/CUDA, both CONSTANT and GLOBAL pointers would be passed as the kernel arguments. Without introducing a new address space combing GLOBAL/CONSTANT, such coercion would be unsafe.
