If you look at the patches in https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/...aging-drm-next you can see that they have been reviewed and ack'd etc. Whether or not it's ready for merging or not will be up to AMD, Alex and Dave.
As for the TODO list at https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/...aging-drm-next some of these items don't need to be done before merging
Anyhoo fingers crossed for 4.15

Seriously, if you don't like that there's always RADV and if you're not satisfied with the current state of it maybe you should roll up your sleeves and fix it yourself? It is an open source project after all...

I don't think they ever gave a timeline for that and seeing how much additional work getting DC mainlined turned out to be you honestly can't blame them.

I think it's pretty clear by now that not everyone wants to work on GPU driver code just to have the AMD products they buy be properly supported.

Tried linux-kernel 4.13 patched with AMDGPU DC last week on my Ubuntu-GNOME 17.04 system with R7 1700X and R9 Fury.
- System randomly crashed about once per 24 hours
- Display port audio seemed to work in most cases, but my music library in Rythmbox was completely silent which makes me think it doesn't work for 44.1khz content
- Switching display modes was buggy as hell. My monitor enables 60, 90, 120 and 144hz (@2560x1440), but only 60 and 120hz actually work as they should.
- Couldn't get Freesync to work at all, despite xrandr reporting it as enabled.
I'm back on vanilla Ubuntu kernel 4.12.11 again. It's missing those features we all want, but at least it's stable.
