[Patch] to compile amdgpu-dkms 19.20 on debian stretch & buster

Hello,

Please find attached a patch so that one can compile the amdgpu-dkms 19.20 driver toward kernel 4.19 on debian stretch (with stretch-backports), and also on debian buster (version 10) which runs linux-4.19

The patch is made of:
 - a change to the Makefile so that it can compile well on debian and find the kernel version (using [make kernelversion])
 - a few changes to the code in file amdgpu_mn.c

Appearently, in 19.20 there are still some problems to compile towards 4.19 because some #ifdef don't seem correct because "mmu_notifier_range" doesn't exist in 4.19.

Same patch as before but using #if to manage different kernel versions

Hi thanks for the patch!

We are re-hauling the dkms package for 19.40, so please hold tight. In the future, it should work on more kernels without patches.

Closing as WONTFIX for now
