Sounds more like this is going to be a future contestant for the 10W and less class (so formerly Intel's Y line of CPUs) if you ask me than anything with a high power.
Zen 2 showed that it should work very well in that power envelope, and considering that a CCX is only 4 cores here, using Zen 2 for a chip with just 4 cores seems like the natural choice. The choice of RDNA2 also is probably more about using less power for the same performance than reaching very high performance.
As such, I expect the amount of CU in the GPU to be relatively low, 8 tops with 4-6 being the most probable.
In fact, if the rumors that AMD will also create some chips on a big.LITTLE design in the future, instead of developing new chips I think AMD could simply reuse the Zen 2 design for the LITTLE cores, just on a smaller node by that time. 4 Zen 2 cores @ 2-2.5Ghz in 5nm or even 3nm shouldn't consume more than 3W but also should be amply enough for the OS and background tasks.

Intel Remains World's Largest Chip Producer as AMD Enters Top 15 |
Intel stays first... but looking at the table, I doubt they will for long now. Samsung and TSMC are at their heels, and Intel is the only one dropping down from the fray.
And cudos to AMD and MediaTek for their 90%+ increases YoY.
