Sigh. Really? We're not pulling security fixes out of the kernel just
for a few users of an out-of-tree kernel module. It leaves *all* users
of the in-tree amdpgpu module vulnerable. That is not acceptable. And
besides any other distro with a recent enough kernel will present you
with the same problem. We're talking about an upstream kernel commit
that will land everywhere, so switching distros will likely not help.

This is considerate a security issue (that is debatable) which means it
could land in older kernel as well. I'll reiterate, this really needs to
be fixed in the out-of-tree DKMS.

It looks like AMD is working on it:
