You are correct. All GPU binaries are in the single fatbin now.
That said, you could still pass extra -fcuda-include-gpubinary to cc1 manually, 
but I see no practical reason to do it -- single fatbin serves the purpose 
better.

We should remove this loop and make CGM.getCodeGenOpts().CudaGpuBinaryFileNames 
a scalar.
