I'm somewhat surprised that one would have to do something special to the kernel build system to "enable" such a build. But perhaps this is completely unrelated. I'm a bit torn apart on this. On the one hand I'm not sure if we have drivers upstream explicitly supporting this as well? On the other hand it's just the Makefiles which need to be written in a way which makes them relocatable. E.g. no absolute path like drivers/gpu/drm/amd/... in them and that's a good idea anyway. Maybe just changing the commit message to "don't use absolute paths in the makefiles" would be sufficient?
