It looks like this test is supposed to check LLVM IR emitted by the host compiler. Right? 1. Should we remove `-fsycl` as well? Is there a better way to get the result of host-side compilation? 2. (not relevant to this PR) Should it be located in sycl/test/**check_device_code**/ directory, if it doesn't check device code at all? _Originally posted by @bader in https://github.com/intel/llvm/pull/3259#discussion_r590378558_
