AMDKFD In Linux 4.18 Bringing Vega GPU Support

AMDKFD upstream maintainer Oded Gabbay has sent out the AMDKFD-Next pull request for Linux 4.18. Most notable is the presence now of Vega/GFX9 discrete GPU support being ready for this next kernel cycle.
Additionally, the AMD "Kernel Fusion Driver" now also supports Userptr memory mapping. There are also a number of fixes for lock handling, optimized signal handling, a command processor hang fix for APUs, and other fixes.
The current list of queued material for the AMDKFD kernel driver in Linux 4.18 can be found via this pull request.
