I've setup dim tools last week. I can see myself using it, but I think ultimately \
this is probably a change that doesn't just affect Alex and myself but everyone at \
AMD that contributes to amdgpu/radeon.

I also have a bit of a backlog of dim-tools emails to go through, so I'm not fully \
up-to-date on DIM yet.

Alex, we should probably have a chat about this sometime in the near future.
