Hm, I thought resonable enterprise distros roll their drm core forward to
the very latest upstream fairly often, so it shouldn't be too bad? Fixing
this completely requires that you upstream your pre-production hw support
early enough that by the time it ships its the backport is already in a
realeased enterprise distro upgrade. But then adding bugfixes on top
should be doable.
