webrev to remove AMD GPU check

[S. Bharadwaj Yadavalli]

This change looks good to me. I have successfully run a couple of PTX 
tests on a machine with Intel CPU + Nvidia GPU with this patch.

Thanks,

Bharadwaj

I found that since AMD CPUs and GPUs have the same vendor ID, this part was not working as intended if you have a system with an AMD CPU with Nvidia GPU so nothing would be offloaded. We will adjust this AMD APU detection when the real HSA system is generally available.
