I don't think this is true for all languages targeting AMDGPU. For example, HIP 
has APIs like `hipMemcpyToSymbol` which accept a string identifying a symbol 
for a variable in global/constant address space. @yaxunl is my understanding 
about the HIP runtime requiring dynamic symbols for global variables correct 
here?
