Lol, pretty sure the amdgpu drivers are like 1/4th the size of the kernel, and they receive many many updates each kernel version, albeit most of it will be for adding features or supporting the latest and greatest.  With the shear scale of millions of lines of code, it's actually fairly common for numerous new bugs each release.  I've been rocking amd cards for decades exclusively, skipping a version here or there has always been worth it to me.  If you check out bugs.gentoo.org or use the kernels bug trackers, there will probably already be a report on it, if not, feel free to add one,  in the past I've been very impressed by gentoo's team, but this isn't a packaging or gentoo related bug most likely.  o7
