Looks fair enough to me. If you can't wait for vulkan support on your GCN card, grab the amdgpu code, together with the radeonSI code, and start porting over. This shouldn't be _that_ hard, you would just need some time on your hands, basically.
That done, the Vulkan userspace blob should support any card supported by amdgpu (that has the hardware capabilities, of course).
I understand why AMD prefers to focus on something else: the community has everithing it needs to make this happen, so they are spending their time more effectively by enhancing the latest cards support on amdgpu, or whatever.
I really don't get all these angry replies :-\
