The idea is to try to better reflect what's actually going to next. For
example, drm-intel-next starts targeting "next next" after about
-rc6. But we haven't properly automated the cutoff point, it only kicks
in at release. So there's still a window when linux-next sees "next
next" stuff that gets dropped. Using drm-xe-next directly makes for a
longer window.

Jani.
