the current state of the drm-next-kmod should be in sync with the 
linux-4.9 kernel, so if a device is supported on that revision on linux 
then chances are it will just work on drm-next.  there is work happening 
to bring the codebase up to sync with the linux-4.11 kernel as well.

the benefit of drm-next-kmod being a port is that you can benefit from 
the work being done on 12-CURRENT in 11-STABLE as they port codebase is 
the same between both of those branches I believe.

cheers,
