Summary: "With the Linux 4.2 kernel settling down nicely and AMD

developers having already sent in a few round of fixes for their new

AMDGPU kernel DRM driver, I've started testing out this new kernel

driver -- plus the new xf86-video-amdgpu DDX and the associated new

Mesa/LibDRM code -- that is providing the open-source accelerated

graphics support for Tonga and all new/future GPUs like Carrizo and Fiji."
