Thanks for the details Alex!

Here is an attempt to formalize the decomposition of a
(mostly Renoir) APU, using plantuml.  That's highly preliminary,
focusing on blocks/sub-blocks/firmware, based on my current
partial (and surely incorrect at places) understanding.
I focused on getting contents quickly, so the formalism itself
is shaky.

Can you spot any error ?  Fill those holes (usually marked with
"?") ?  What additional blocks would make sense (caches at least,
I guess) ?  What additional information would help understand how
they work together (control/data flows, busses...) ?

Indentation is shaky too, better format it to read (e.g. by
pasting in http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/)
