Thankfully.
However, the open source driver that is now part of the Linux kernel did indeed come from AMD, and could not have come from anywhere else.
Your parent said AMD publishes the sources to its (only) driver. That they happen to publish it with the Linux kernel wrapped around it, through kernel.org, is also true, but not incompatible with the claim that they publish it.
