[OpenCL] Disallow negative attribute arguments
ClosedPublic

Summary

Negative arguments in kernel attributes are silently bitcast'ed to
unsigned, for example:

__attribute__((reqd_work_group_size(1, -1, 1)))
__kernel void k() {}

is a complete equivalent of:

__attribute__((reqd_work_group_size(1, 4294967294, 1)))
__kernel void k() {}

This is likely an error, so the patch forbids negative arguments in
several OpenCL attributes. Users who really want 4294967294 can still
use it as an unsigned representation.
