What USE flags did you compile 'sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode' with?

If I am reading the section of the ebuild shown below correctly, having
'legacy' enabled is what installs the 'kaveri' binaries.
/usr/portage/sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode/amdgpu-ucode-20150803.ebuild:23,33
AMDGPU_LEGACY_CIK="bonaire hawaii kabini kaveri mullins"

src_install() {
    local directory files legacyfiles
    if use legacy; then
        for directory in ${AMDGPU_LEGACY_CIK}; do
            legacyfiles+=( ${directory}/*.bin )
        done
        insinto /lib/firmware/radeon
        doins ${legacyfiles[@]}
    fi

'legacy' seems to be disabled by default. See below.
# emerge -ap sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ... done!
[ebuild  N    ~] sys-firmware/amdgpu-ucode-20150803  USE="-legacy"
