+The llvm.bswap.16 intrinsic returns a ushort value that has the high and low
+byte of the input ushort swapped. Similarly, the llvm.bswap.i32 intrinsic
+returns a uint value that has the four bytes of the input uint swapped, so that
+if the input bytes are numbered 0, 1, 2, 3 then the returned uint will have its
+bytes in 3, 2, 1, 0 order. The llvm.bswap.i64 intrinsic extends this concept
+to 64 bits.
