I am currently testing your patch set, on amd-staging-drm-next
(380d480842d584278dba9aa74341017d8c7d8c23) with an AMD tahiti xt part and a
displayport monitor.
patch02 drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/dce/dce_clock_source.c did not apply but
seems kind of benign.

It's working out of the box on my AMD tahiti xt part. I did not manage to break
it with aggressive mode programming. Let's see how it goes with my everday
usage.

Did want to do it, but did drop it due to DC code getting fixed with too much
changes.
Brutally mapping DCE6 to DCE8 is an act of faith... and it's working on my
part.

AFAIK, Vulkan support is not dependent on the display block. I am running heavy
vulkan games on a custom gnu/linux x86_64 AMD hardware based system, then the
hwcomposer is android only?

I was nearly sure that atomic support was implicitely added for parts
supporting only legacy DRM mode programming interfaces?
