convnet-benchmark is not working with tensorflow 1.8 on AMD or Nvidia cards

[pramenku]

If you build and install tensorflow 1.8 from https://github.com/ROCmSoftwarePlatform/tensorflow-upstream/tree/r1.8-rocm and run the benchmark tests, you will get 0 values either in AMD or Nvidia cards with their latest release public driver.

Is this benchmark no more applicable for tensorflow1.8 latest version?
Is dev is going to update it to work for tensorflow1.8 and higher version for the future?

Same here.
Not working for tensorflow 1.9 too.

OS: Ubuntu
Python: 3.5.2
Tensorflow: 1.9

res = session.run(target_op) to res = session.run(target) seems to help.
