amd-staging-drm-next is just our development branch, the actual
amdgpu-next branch is:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/agd5f/linux/-/commits/drm-next
I'll merge the platform branch there and then apply the amdgpu patches on top.
For amd-staging-drm-next, we can just apply the whole set since that
branch is just for development so there won't be any conflicts with
upstream.
