Is DataType::kHALF deprecated?

Hi,

I’ve been using TensorRT since its early releases (2, 3). Back then, if you wanted to build using FP16 mode, you had to do 2 things:

parser->parse(...,DataType::kHALF);
builder->setHalf2Mode(true);

Now, you set FP16 via:

config->setFlag(BuilderFlag::kFP16);

My question is:

Should we stop using kHALF in the parser, and use kFLOAT always, regardless of INT8, FP16 or FP32 precision?

What happens if we have it enabled?
