The open source ones should be fine for a laptop APU. Certainly alot better than whatever the hell Nvidia think they're doing... But yeah, for fancier features like OpenCL, Vulkan, raytracing, you'd have to use amdgpu "pro" drivers which includes many proprietary parts. Intel are definitely committed to providing open source Linux drivers for the gpus, at least based on past behaviour. They've had open source drivers for the iGPUs pretty much since the beginning(2010), IIRC. My last two desktops actually didn't have dGPUs at all because I couldn't be bothered, and I'm not much of a gamer. But now GPUs are too important for many other things, so I'm very happy that Intel got into it. And they didn't disappoint with drivers again really. Though it did take some time to get really sorted, mostly because they had a lot of driver tech debt to sort out on all platforms. So drivers have been shifty all around, but now they're quite stable.
