linux_4_9: enable support for amdgpu on older chipsets 

Linux 4.9 includes experimental amdgpu support for AMD Southern Islands
chipsets. (By default, only Sea Islands and newer chipsets are supported.)
Southern Islands chips will still use radeon by default, but daring users may
set `services.xserver.videoDrivers = [ "amdgpu" ];` to try the experimental
driver.
