[REQUEST] Expose compilation option to disable/enable fmad instructions #379

@nvlukasz

Description

@nvlukasz

Description

Allow controlling whether compilers emit fused floating point instructions like fmad, since these instructions can affect numerical accuracy.

Context

We observed surprising floating point precision issues in Autodesk XLB and traced it down to fmad instructions. These can be disabled with the --fmad=false option to NVRTC.
