Cycles AMD HIP device feedback

Just made a patch that patches in polaris the same way for vega on blender 3.4.0 alpha for linux

as linux can run rocm 5.2.1 (22.20.1) flawlessly on linux using this env var

ROC_ENABLE_PRE_VEGA=1

and hip works quite well on those cards (outside blender)

yes the renders are broken , but this is a proof of concept ,
and also blender fault rather than a driver fault

YES it can be done , but the dev team just doesn’t want to .
