Both of these module do not have opencl kernels, so they have to be
processed on CPU.
And for that, the data needs to be copied from GPU memory to CPU (and back)...

Basically only by implementing those respective opencl kernels
The gamma kernel would be trivial, now that the "pipe format callbacks" work has
landed last fall (https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/pull/1253)

I wanted to do it, and I would do it, but (*still*, sigh) i have no opencl here.
