Title:
  Pull in upstream AMD code (amdgpu) in Xenial

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  AMD have made a lot of progress on the amdgpu driver (especially in
  Linux 4.5), plus a few fixes for radeon, and the code will definitely
  benefit our HWE efforts.

  The new code includes Powerplay support for discrete GPUs (integrated
  GPUs are already supported).

  This will help us move away from the fglrx driver.
