Using amdgpu as default for all GCN cards

Disclaimer: I am not a coder, just a graphic designer looking to improve the entire AMD GCN cards from an AMD power laptop.
After seeing the improvement done on AMD support from the past years, one step is missing, enable amdgpu module as default for all GCN cards including South Island and Sea Island.
A Fedora contributor  provided a special kernel with these support. It will be nice if that was applied on the mainline Fedora kernel to enhance AMD hardware for their user.

Taking initiative, I set a draft wiki on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Luya/Changes/amdgpu_default_for_GCN_cards

Idea was inspired by  this comment: https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/phoronix/latest-phoronix-articles/978664-nouveau-developers-remain-blocked-by-nvidia-from-advancing-open-source-driver?p=978746#post978746

P.S: OpenCL was in considering with the ROCm project but that is another story.
