multiple acronyms that are not documented in the glossary. This commit
introduces some missing acronyms to the AMD glossary documentation. The
meaning of each acronym in this commit was extracted from code
documentation available in the following files:
- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/gfx_v7_0.c
- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/amd_shared.h
