Just tried -clKernel 3 on a RX580 and it doesn't work...

Get the following message:
GPU1: Radeon RX 580 Series (pcie 1), OpenCL 2.0, 8 GB VRAM, 36 CUs
Light cache generated in 5.2 s (12.8 MB/s)
The option -clKernel 3 is ignored for GPU1

I just tried clKernel 3 and the result is this:

GPU1 The option -clKernel 3 is ignored for GPU1

Any hints?
   -clkernel 3 is only for Polaris GPUs - there is no speedup for the newer cards because of the architecture of the memory controller.
