We already use GFX9 and I don't want us to have confusing naming in the
driver. GFXn naming is better from the driver perspective, because it's the
real version of the gfx portion of the hw. Also, CIK means
Bonaire-Kaveri-Kabini, it doesn't mean CI.

It shouldn't confuse our SDMA, UVD, VCE etc. code much. Those have nothing
to do with GFXn and they have their own version numbers.
