        <pre>SP3 handles bound_ctrl differently in gfx8 and gfx9.
This causes incompatibility and inconsistency issues.

I believe we should improve current implementation:
- make it more compatible with SP3;
- make it more consistent.

I see the following options:

a) Do not change anything;
b) Strictly follow SP3 implementation;
c) Mimic SP3 gfx8 implementation for both gfx8 and gfx9;
d) Mimic SP3 gfx9 implementation for both gfx8 and gfx9.

Artem and Sam suggested option c) while I tend to prefer option d).
Matt, what is your opinion?</pre>
