Hi Davidlohr, looks good in general.

Maybe I need more coffee but I don't thing the documented constraints
are exactly the same as the ones in the code.

Thanks again for doing this!

Thanks for doing this!.  I wonder if the example should gain a second FMW to 
accommodate
the original mixed device config. I'm fairly sure that should work and good to 
indicate
that the mixed case is real.

I'm confused. I thought this one was allowed by the spec?  Without a spec
clarification I'm reluctant to prevent it.

Will be at least 11.1 as that's the cycle we are in now I think.

If I read the code above right you check for device coherent. So
I'd argue, should say Requires @device_coherent.
