That's a very good question. Maybe I should have included more
information regarding what's not affected. The last series of commits
have been to LinuxKPI in -CURRENT. As such:

drm-kmod: Meta port, not relevant
drm-current-kmod: See original message
drm-fbsd11.2-kmod: Not affected by changes in -CURRENT
drm-fbsd12.0-kmod: Not affected by changes in -CURRENT
drm-legacy-kmod: Not affected by changes in LinuxKPI

drm-stable-kmod does not exist anymore. Stable drm kmod ports for other
than -CURRENT are more or less frozen in separate branches where they
only receive bug fixes (drm-fbsdxxx-kmod).

Hope that answers your questions.
