Having a custom inliner doesn't really fit in with the new PM's
pipeline. It's also extra technical debt.
amdgpu-inline only does a couple of custom things compared to the normal
inliner:
1) It disables inlining if the number of BBs in a function would exceed
some limit
2) It increases the threshold if there are pointers to private arrays(?)
These can all be handled as TTI inliner hooks.
There already exists a hook for backends to multiply the inlining
threshold.
This way we can remove the custom amdgpu-inline pass.
This caused inline-hint.ll to fail, and after some investigation, it
looks like getInliningThresholdMultiplier() was previously getting
applied twice in amdgpu-inline (https://reviews.llvm.org/D62707 fixed it
not applying at all, so some later inliner change must have fixed
something), so I had to change the threshold in the test.

AMDGPU uses multiplier 9 for the inline cost. It is taken into account
everywhere except for inline hint threshold. As a result we are penalizing
functions with the inline hint making them less probable to be inlined
than those without the hint. Defaults are 225 for a normal function and
325 for a function with an inline hint. Currently we have effective
threshold 225 * 9 = 2025 for normal functions and just 325 for those with
the hint. That is fixed by this patch.
