Generally, should we perhaps use something like the following to at least
make it obvious in the generated PTX code that the compiler tried to
generate a "nop"?

I have not tested this, have not verified whether we need to set the
"predicable" attribute to "false" here (existing problem maybe?), have
not thought about any other implications. But given that "comments in
PTX are treated as whitespace", that should be fine?

Conceptually ACK. Not useful on PTX.

I noticed that this doesn't trigger if using "-fpatchable-function-entry"
during offloading compilation (but it does trigger for
"-foffload=-fpatchable-function-entry"). Is this a) intentional or by
accident, and/or b) desired?

Given that the first argument of "dg-excess-errors" is just a comment,
shouldn't we instead explicitly scan for this specific diagnostic, while
also still watching for other excess errors?
