Description

Describe the documentation issue

Hello,

I was reading and studying the documentation about the oneDNN Execution Provider, and I noticed that the supported backend only mentions CPU under DNNL. However, based on recent updates (e.g., GPU support for QAttention), it seems GPU functionality is also supported.

Could you clarify why the documentation only lists CPU? Is this because GPU supports only a very limited number of operations, or is the documentation simply outdated?

Thank you for your time!
