I think this is fine, especially since it will help catch issues in
amdgpu quickly and hopefully encourage developers to fix their problems
before they make it to a tree with wider impact lika -next.

However, this is now the third place that W=1 has been effectively
enabled (i915 and btrfs are the other two I know of) and it would be
nice if this was a little more unified, especially since it is not
uncommon for the warnings under W=1 to shift around and keeping them
unified will make maintainence over the longer term a little easier. I
am not sure if this has been brought up in the past and I don't want to
hold up this change but I suspect this sentiment of wanting to enable
W=1 on a per-subsystem basis is going to continue to grow.

Regardless, for clang 11.1.0 to 16.0.5, I see no warnings when building
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/ with Arch Linux's configuration or
allmodconfig.
