Message-ID<rzhHz-1GO-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
A lot of breakage for Building v4.6 on Centos 7.

The following error occurs after booting Linux v4.6 on Centos 7 with a
Radeon Adapter:

R600_cp:  Failed to load Firmware "Radeon/R600_rlc.bin
FATAL Error during GPU init.

Linux v4.5 works fine.  Also of note, someone moved some scripts
around resulting in and error during kernel install.  This build was
with "make localmodconfig":

Updated the package and it fixed the kdump problem.  The other problem
with firmware was resolved by updating the linux-firmware from the git
repo at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git

i.e.

git clone https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
cd linux-firmware
make install

The problem here is that Centos 7 has the script at /usr/lib/kdump
instead of /lib/kdump.  Problem fixed by creating a symbolic link to
/usr/lib/kdump in /lib.

i.e.

ln -s /usr/lib/kdump /lib/kdump

fixed.  Not sure why v4.6 install.sh causes this but it does.
