Bringing the IRC discussion here.  I think this is really at the
expense (though not really) of the CPU, since it allows the GPU to use
more of the shared CPU/GPU cache in the uncore.

You can fix up the #define names if you want; the MEDIUM etc may be
from an old, incorrect doc.  They were added awhile back.
