Aiming to package v7.1.0 of the upstream to have better compatibility
with the ROCm stack (v7.1.0) in ubuntu resolute. From 7.2.0 onwards
upstream moved to https://github.com/ROCm/rocm-libraries so thats why
you see deprecation warning in the upstream repo but that is the source
for v7.1.0

The rocWMMA is a C++ library for accelerating mixed-precision matrix
multiply-accumulate (MMA) operations leveraging AMD GPU hardware.
rocWMMA makes it easier to break down MMA problems into fragments and
distribute block-wise MMA operations in parallel across GPU wavefronts.
The API consists of a header library, that can be used to compile MMA
acceleration directly into GPU kernel device code. This can benefit from
compiler optimization in the generation of kernel assembly, and doesn't
incur additional overhead costs of linking to external runtime libraries
or having to launch separate kernels.

rocWMMA includes sample projects to validate and demonstrate API usage.
These include simple GEMMs, performant GEMMs, DLRM, GEMV and hipRTC
integration.
