Apple MacBook Pro 11,5

This configuration will not work with MacBook Pro 11,2 or 11,3 models.

Notable features

Graphics

The MacBookPro11,4 and MacBookPro11,5 models ship with a discrete ATI/AMD graphics card (whereas MacBookPro11,2 and MacBookPro11,3 ship with NVidia cards). This is alongside the usual integrated Intel GPU.

You may wish to look into dynamic switching between integrated and discrete graphics, but this config doesn't attempt it.

Currently this uses the experimental si_support to disable the older radeon driver and enable the more modern amdgpu driver.
