I assume that by adding this to the list of supported devices we're essentially
freezing the existing uapi. This concerns me, as we've not yet started running
Vulkan conformance on any Series6XT GPUs and there's a chance we may need to
make some tweaks.

I'm not really sure what the accepted approach is to hardware enablement /
experimental support. I'm not sure if it's sufficient to hide support behind a
Kconfig option and/or module parameter or whether we just have to hold this
patch back for the time being.

Thanks
