[N] Nvidia bans translation layers like ZLUDA

Recently I saw posts on this sub where people discussed the use of non-Nvidia GPUs for machine learning. For example ZLUDA recently got some attention to enabling CUDA applications on AMD GPUs. Now Nvidia doesn't like that and prohibits the use of translation layers with CUDA 11.6 and onwards.
