5b4c8f221e [BACKEND] Compiler improvements (#557)
This PR adds several optimization capabilities in the compiler backend:
- Now using inline PTX for `tl.store`, making it possible to use things like evict_last
- For A100, mma layout can be directly converted to shared memory
- For A100, an additional "transpose" argument in `dot` allows tensors to be loaded once and used both row- and col- major.
- Fixed liveness analysis; this was broken.
- Now can load/store directly mma layout without converting. Useful for when tl.dot accumulator is initialized with DRAM data inside of an inner loop.
- `tl.dot` can now take LHS inputs in registers when it comes from a previous `tl.dot` instruction. Useful for e.g. fused attention.

5a51f3e529 [CODEGEN] Bugfix in membar pass (#124)
Membar pass on top of master is buggy with asynchronous copy. For example, it doesn't wait for asynchronous copies to complete before recoalescing accumulator in GEMM, which leads to undefined behavior when the program doesn't enter the loop. This PR proposes
