Description
It would be nice to have support for the older cards even if parallelism doesn't work initially.
Of course the best would be if we could mismatch different arch cards and still get it working.

The target is sm_61(most cards), and sm_60(Tesla P100)

Research direction
Start by reading the linked Pascal microarchitecture reference and searching the repository for existing GPU architecture targets and support paths. Compare the current behavior with the requested sm_61 and sm_60 targets; done should be defined for Pascal cards, while mixed architectures and parallelism remain explicitly scoped.
