Agreed - no reason to keep these in-tree.

Idea was to gather feedback on the topics. One example:
Do we need the getAMDGPUEntityIndex helper, considering ~half of the
existing codebase uses it. Yet other half references
gAMDGPUEntityIndex directly.

Most of the above, seem to be a copy/paste from the radeon driver,
which in turn is a copy from (?) and the original commit lacks any
information :-\
