@nprofile1q... I thought that nvidia's cuobjdump used ffma and fmad, but apparently that's a false memory and their machine ISA never had fmad...

Anyway, the ffma vs fmad naming would be a significant source of confusion to me. I'd rather try to have the discriminating letter in the same position for all variants, e.g. ffma / fuma / ftma for fused / unfused / tentative (weak) variants respectively.
