Hi Thomas,

first I like to mention that I do not have any AMD hardware in use with 
buildroot, I am just following the development of Libreelec:

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/13333
https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/pull/2403

The motivation for the Kodi patch was: "Hardware decoding with AMD GPUs 
is only supported with this new method"

Because I think this will improve user experience with AMD hardware I 
sent these patches.

Regards, Bernd
