it seems it worked well, and the performance difference between CPU
and GPU is notable.

Interestingly, previous generation gfx1030 (an 6800 XT) [1] performed
better than the current generation gfx1100 (a W7800) [2] and that is a
very valuable test result to me. Something is off.

We will need to investigate that. Specifically, I want to know if this
is a device/driver issue, or a QEMU emulation issue.

Also, since there is no direct dependency on ROCm packages, our CI will
never trigger for clpeak. I will need to adapt our scheduler to account
for opencl-icd.

clpeak will add quite some value to the Debian ROCm Team's QA work.

Thanks for enabling this!

Best,
Christian
