The Dota 2 OpenGL performance doesn't seem to change much with Linux 4.11...

But similar to our DRM-Next testing ahead of Linux 4.11, the Vulkan performance does indeed go up with this new kernel version!

At 4K, the Dota 2 Vulkan performance also still went up for RADV. It looks like the Linux 4.11 improvements for Vulkan may be attributed to TTM memory manager optimizations.
