Another round of AMDGPU/AMDKFD kernel driver improvements were sent out this week as feature development for DRM-Next ahead of [1]Linux 7.1 begins to wind down.

With Linux 7.0 due for release in mid-April and the cut-off of new Direct Rendering Manager feature material for the follow-on merge window cutting off about two weeks before that, we're seeing some of the final pull requests of new kernel graphics/display driver bits targeting Linux 7.1. Queued in prior weeks on the AMDGPU and AMDKFD driver side has been [2]enabling support for more upcoming AMD graphics hardware and [3]some color management improvements and other minor feature work.

This week's AMDGPU pull includes adding a new DebugFS interface for monitoring 64-bit PCIe registers, graphics queue priority fixes, user queue "UserQ" fixes, a GPU page fault fix for non-4K page size kernel builds (as is more common in the land outside of x86_64), and other fixes.

For going along with other recent pull requests landing new graphics hardware IP, this pull request adds support for the new SMU 15.0.8 IP. There are also fixes/updates for other recent SMU 15.x IP as well as Display Core Next (DCN) 4.2.
