FirePro M5100 Support in drm-next-kmod?

It is actually 

kld_list="/boot/modules/amdgpu.ko" as leaving out the .ko causes nothing to attempt to load.  
I still have the same system freeze with that line as with the kld_list="amdgpu"

 From what
 I understand, you should probably try
  
 kld_list="/boot/modules/amdgpu"
 in rc.conf to ensure you're
 picking up the port kmod instead of the base
 kmod.

 I am testing FreeBSD on a Dell
 Latitude M4800 with an AMD FirePro M5100 mxm video card. 
 On a clean install, I install drm-next-kmod from ports, then
 add kld_list="amdgpu" to the /etc/rc.conf.  On
 reboot, the system freezes during the driver loading, and I
 have to physically power off the system and boot into single
 user mode to disable the driver and recover.
 
 
 
 I have tried this in 11.2 and 12.0 Beta1.  I have tried
 drm-stable-kmod as well.  I have tried this in both UEFI
 and legacy boot modes, but it happens the same each time. 
 If I load the i915 driver, that loads without issue.
 
 
 
 I run "pciconf –lv | grep display –B 3 –A"
 and get the following result:
 
 
 
 Vgapci1 at pci0:0:2:0:     Class=0x030000 card=0x05cc1028
 chip=0x04168086 rev=0x06 hdr=0x00
 
         Vendor  = ‘Intel Corporation’
 
         Device  = ‘4th Gen Core Processor Integrated
 Graphics Controller’
 
         Class   = display
 
         Subclass = VGA

 I do see an error during boot, but otherwise seems to be
 ok:
 
 Radeon/verde_me.bin: could not load firmware image, error

 Radeon/verde_rlc.bin: could not load firmware image, error

 My question is this:  Is this particular card unsupported,
 or is there something I am missing?
