I cannot confirm the slowdown for sha512crypt-opencl on Tahiti.  To me,
it auto-tunes similarly, and results in similar poor speed.

BTW, it appears to be limited to LWS 256.  I think 512 might work
better, like it does on TITAN (where 512 results in lower GWS, too).
But I can't easily find where that limit is.  magnum, can you?
