Yes, thanks!

Maybe you are not aware that you can use --format=opencl which will do
just that. You can also use --format=cuda or do both with --format=gpu.
You can even use a wildcard, as in --format=wpapsk* for testing all
variants of that format, or --format=*crypt for all formats that ends in
"crypt".

I'd much appreciate a benchmark before/after trying this change: In
src/opencl/wpapsk_kernel.cl (and many others, but lets try this first),
we have this:
#if gpu_amd(DEVICE_INFO)
#define USE_BITSELECT
#endif
If you delete the #if and #endif so we define it for nvidia too, does it
affect performance significantly? Note that after editing, you need to
run "make" to have the change "activated" even though the kernel is
built at run-time.
