-Currently lpgemm can only be built using either zen3 or zen4 config.
The lpgemm kernel code is re-structured to support amdzen, and thus
multi machine deployment.
-The micro-kernel calls (gemm and pack) are currently hardcoded in the
lpgemm framework. This is removed and a new lpgemm_cntx based dispatch
mechanism is designed to support runtime configurability for
micro-kernels.

Fucntionality - When the B matrix is not reordered before the
u8s8s16os16 compute kernel call packing of B matrix is done as
part of the five loop algorithm. The state of B matrix (packed
or unpacked) is given as an user input.
- Packing of B matrix is done as part of the five loop
compute.
- Temprorary buffer for pack B is allocated in the five
loop algorithm
- Multithreading for computation kernel
- Configuration constants for u8s8s16os16 are part of the
lpgemm config

Feature Addition : Added low precision GEMM to addon. The
kernel takes unsigned int8 and signed int8 as inputs and
performs GEMM operation. The intermediate accumulation and
output are in signed int16.
- The compute kernel will perform computation only
if B matrix reordered to suit the usage of AVX2
instruction vpmaddubsw.
- Kernel for packing the B matrix is provided.
- LPGEMM bench code was modified to test the
performance and accuracy of the new variant.
