The `generic` in the title applies to `kernel` rather than `GPU`. However, since LLVM does have an AMDGPU backend I suspect it's possible to do the same for AMD GPUs as well using the same technique and without changing the frontend code (assuming the AMD driver accepts whatever comes out of the AMDGPU backend). However, I can hardly blame folks for focusing on NVIDIA devices. For better or worse, they're dominating the GPGPU space right now. Just as an example, all the cloud providers have NVIDIA GPUs on offer, but the same is not true for AMD GPUs (though IIRC, Google is planning to offer them in the next generation).
