We’re now at a point where transitioning fully to the open-source GPU kernel modules is the right move, and we’re making that change in the upcoming R560 driver release.

"Transitioning" means nothing today. They are likely going to still have a ton of proprietary components. AMD does as well but the driver itself is part of the kernel. They work and will continue to work as AMD GPU support is built in.
