IMO that's not quite enough.

The main problem with this (from drm-tip and dim POV) is that you won't
notice if you push patches that cause conflicts in rebuilding
drm-tip. That's then left for the next person to figure out, and for
them it's completely unexpected.

We had this when AMD branches were part of drm-tip, and it really wasn't
much fun, because the burden and benefits were quite lopsided. It's the
main reason the branches were dropped.

Now, I think there's a non-trivial amount of people who want to see more
of gitlab MR based workflows. This is a problem we'll inevitably need to
tackle anyway. Perhaps rebuilding drm-tip could be a gitlab workflow,
triggered automatically when any of the branches are pushed? With
notifications for folks to figure out the conflicts. Maybe there could
be some linux-next like logic to use older branches until the conflicts
get fixed.
