I looked at the driver itself and there are two comments related to
these:

HwDataA: This mostly contains power-related configuration.
HwDataB: This mostly contains GPU-related configuration.

Are they still accurate our just outdated leftovers from an early
version? If they're accurate I'd include them in the description here as
well.
