A global variable may have the same name as a label, and ptxas does not accept it.
Prefix labels with $L__ to fix this.

ptxas is a proprietary compiler from Nvidia that can compile PTX to
machine code (SASS). It has a lot of diagnostics to catch errors
in PTX, which can be used to verify PTX output from llc.
Set -DPXTAS_EXECUTABLE=/path/to/ptxas CMake option to enable it.
If this option is not set, then ptxas is substituted to true which
effectively disables all ptxas RUN lines.
LLVM_PTXAS_EXECUTABLE environment variable takes precedence over
the CMake option, and allows to override ptxas executable that is used for LIT
without complete re-configuration.

Default nameTableKind results in the following DWARF section:
.section .debug_pubnames
{
.b32 LpubNames_end0-LpubNames_start0 // Length of Public Names Info
LpubNames_start0:
[...]
LpubNames_end0:
}
Without -mattr=+ptx75 ptxas complains about labels and label
expressions:
error : Feature 'labels1 - labels2 expression in .section' requires
PTX ISA .version 7.5 or later
error : Feature 'Defining labels in .section' requires PTX ISA
.version 7.0 or later
The patch modifies dbg-value-const-byref.ll to let it run without PTX
7.5 (available from CUDA 11.0), and adds a new test just for this
case.
