The commits will show up in
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/log/?h=amd-staging-drm-next
Probably today or tomorrow. You'll have to build your own kernel for
now. The typical path would be these patches make it into 4.15 (if that
window is still open) and then eventually be released as part of 4.15
and then the older tree maintainers can cherry-pick things into their trees.
Getting into a distro kernel depends on the distro I imagine. Might be
able to file a bug with the Fedora bug tracker for the kernel and then
we can co-ordinate getting the patches into their tree.
