-When passed as a `ccall` argument with the `llvmcall` calling convention, an `AddrSpacePtr` will be converted to an LLVM pointer type with the correct address space.
-This type is mainly used to ensure Julia's codegen uses the correct address space when calling LLVM intrinsics.
+A pointer type that more closely resembles LLVM semantics: It includes the pointer address
+space, and will be passed as an actual pointer instead of an integer.
+
+This type is mainly used to interface with code that has strict requirements about pointers,
+e.g., intrinsics that are selected based on the address space, or back-ends that require
+pointers to be identifiable by their types.
