Yes, let's see. I “went” through a lot of kernel changes with this
setup, from Ubuntu stock to mainline 4.10/11/12 and back (in order to
get some weird Gigabyte BIOS to boot with the new Ryzen 7), and
amdgpu-pro OpenCL still worked. amdgpu is in the kernel, so no need for
module recompile (that's one reason I prefer it over nvidia…).
