Public bug reported:

Hello.

Due to recent changes that amount to merging the amdkfd kernel module
into amdgpu (for context, see https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives
/amd-gfx/2018-August/025719.html), the CONFIG_HSA_AMD option moved from
the Display Interface Bridges kernel build option group to the Display
Engine group. It appears that as a consequence of this the option is no
longer being set when building the kernel (see for example
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.20-rc3/). This breaks
client software such as https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm. It
would be extremely helpful if this behaviour was corrected to match
existing practice i.e. CONFIG_HSA_AMD is set. Thank you.
