* Fix vectorized version of bli_amaxv
To match Netlib, i?amax should return:
- the lowest index among equal values
- the first NaN if one is encountered
* Fix typos.
* And another one...
* Update ref. amaxv kernel too.
* Re-enabled optimized amaxv kernels.
Details:
- Re-enabled the optimized, intrinsics-based amaxv kernels in the 'zen'
kernel set for use in haswell, zen, zen2, knl, and skx subconfigs.
These two kernels (for s and d datatypes) were temporarily disabled in
e186d71 as part of issue #380. However, the key missing semantic
properties that prompted the disabling of these kernels--returning the
index of the *first* rather than of the last element with largest
absolute value, and returning the index of the first NaN if one is
encountered--were added as part of #382 thanks to Devin Matthews.
Thus, now that the kernels are working as expected once more, this
commit causes these kernels to once again be registered for the
affected subconfigs, which effectively reverts all code changes
included in e186d71.
- Whitespace/formatting updates to new macros in bli_amaxv_zen_int.c.

Details:
- Disabled use of optimized amaxv kernels, which use vector intrinsics
for both 's' and 'd' datatypes. We disable these kernels because the
current implementations fail to observe a semantic property of the
BLAS i?amax_() subroutine, which is to return the index of the
*first* element containing the maximum absolute value (that is, the
first element if there exist two or more elements that contain the
same value). With the optimized kernels disabled, the affected
subconfigurations (haswell, zen, zen2, knl, and skx) will use the
default reference implementations. Thanks to Mat Cross for reporting
this issue via #380.
- CREDITS file update.
Details:
- In config/zen2/make_defs.mk, changed the -march= flag so that
-march=znver1 is used instead of -march=znver2 when CC_VENDOR is
clang. (The gcc branch attempts to differentiate between various
versions, but the equivalent version cutoffs for clang are not
yet known by us, so we have to use a single flag for all versions
of clang. Hopefully -march=znver1 is new enough. If not, we'll
fall back to -march=bdver4 -mno-fma4 -mno-tbm -mno-xop -mno-lwp.)
This issue was discovered thanks to AppVeyor.
Details:
- NOTE: This is a merge commit of 'master' of git://github.com/amd/blis
into 'amd-master' of flame/blis.
- Fixed a bug in the downstream value of BLIS_NUM_ARCHS, which was
inadvertantly not incremented when the Zen2 subconfiguration was
added.
- In bli_gemm_front(), added a missing conditional constraint around the
call to bli_gemm_small() that ensures that the computation precision
of C matches the storage precision of C.
- In bli_syrk_front(), reorganized and relocated the notrans/trans logic
that existed around the call to bli_syrk_small() into bli_syrk_small()
to minimize the calling code footprint and also to bring that code
into stylistic harmony with similar code in bli_gemm_front() and
bli_trsm_front(). Also, replaced direct accessing of obj_t fields with
proper accessor static functions (e.g. 'a->dim[0]' becomes
'bli_obj_length( a )').
- Added #ifdef BLIS_ENABLE_SMALL_MATRIX guard around prototypes for
bli_gemm_small(), bli_syrk_small(), and bli_trsm_small(). This is
strictly speaking unnecessary, but it serves as a useful visual cue to
those who may be reading the files.
- Removed cpp macro-protected small matrix debugging code from
bli_trsm_front.c.
- Added a GCC_OT_9_1_0 variable to build/config.mk.in to facilitate gcc
version check for availability of -march=znver2, and added appropriate
support to configure script.
- Cleanups to compiler flags common to recent AMD microarchitectures in
config/zen/amd_config.mk, including: removal of -march=znver1 et al.
from CKVECFLAGS (since the -march flag is added within make_defs.mk);
setting CRVECFLAGS similarly to CKVECFLAGS.
- Cleanups to config/zen/bli_cntx_init_zen.c.
- Cleanups, added comments to config/zen/make_defs.mk.
- Cleanups to config/zen2/make_defs.mk, including making use of newly-
added GCC_OT_9_1_0 and existing GCC_OT_6_1_0 to choose the correct
set of compiler flags based on the version of gcc being used.
- Reverted downstream changes to test/test_gemm.c.
- Various whitespace/comment changes.
Updated copyright information for kernels/zen/bli_trsm_small.c file
Removed separate kernels for zen2 architecture
Instead added threshold conditions in zen kernels both for ROME and NAPLES

config/zen/bli_family_zen.h: deleted macro BLIS_ENBLE_ZEN_BLOCK_SIZES
config/zen/make_defs.mk: removed compiler flag -mno-avx256-split-unaligned-store
frame/base/bli_cpuid.c: ROME family is 17H but model # is from 0x30H.
test/test_gemm.c - commented out #define FILE_IN_OUT (some compilation error when BLIS is configured as amd64)
Now we can use single configuration has ./configure amd64 - this will work both for ROME & Naples
