That’s kinda connected to my second comment ;) I think the only place where we can have reads of registers that are never defined by an explicit write is for arguments of hw entrypoints (`amgdpu_cs`, `amdgpu_kernel`, `amdgpu_ps`, etc.).
So, we should consider arguments as used for these calling conventions.
Everywhere else, I agree, we don’t need to look at reads or anything.
I guess the `written to` in the docs can be considered good enough, as kernel/shader arguments are written to by the hardware, it’s just not visible in the shader code.
