Description

We should perhaps adapt @checked from GPUToolbox, but more importantly we likely see a lot of unnecessary small allocation due to https://github.com/JuliaParallel/MPI.jl/pull/939#issuecomment-4081474562

CUDA.jl explicitly outlines the error path as well.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked MPI.jl pull-request discussion and compare how GPUToolbox's @checked and CUDA.jl outline error paths. Identify the relevant AMDGPU.jl error path and determine what changes are needed to avoid the unnecessary small allocations described in the issue; done means the path is manually outlined and the allocation concern is addressed.
