Subject: Large new drm driver

Hi Linus,

Just so you don't get a large suprise:

$ git diff --dirstat v4.11..next-20170501
   3.9% arch/
  13.5% drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/asic_reg/vega10/DC/
   6.0% drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/asic_reg/vega10/GC/
  23.5% drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/asic_reg/vega10/NBIO/
   7.5% drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/asic_reg/vega10/
   4.9% drivers/gpu/drm/
   4.6% drivers/net/
   5.8% drivers/staging/media/atomisp/pci/atomisp2/css2400/
   3.0% drivers/staging/media/
   4.5% drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/
  12.6% drivers/

There are some very large include files in the new drm driver.

wc -l over all the files in
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/asic_reg/vega10/:

361003 total
