'x' is not an indirect argument in this context. It is a direct argument that
happens to be of reference type.
A normal Indirect argument is when the ABI says an argument should implicitly
be passed as a pointer to a temporary. IndirectByVal is when the ABI says that
something should be passed directly in the arguments area of the stack. Some
targets never use indirect arguments for normal C cases, but they're still used
for direct non-POD arguments in C++.
