There is a consern that this approach may cause far more regressions that this series. We are talking about years worth of Mesa drivers (et al) that depend on render functionality exposed via the primary node. I'm OK with writing the patches, but it'll be up-to the AMDGPU team to follow-up with any regressions. Are you ok with that? Fwiw I could also move the FORCE_AUTH hack to core drm, if you prefer.
