Hello,
while the official driver doesn't support old HD7900 series card under linux, I'm doing some test with one HD7990 and I found that the latest amdgpu-pro 17.50 driver can provide a working X11 driver and boinc-compatible OpenCL libraries.
Sadly, milkyway application refuse to crunch and exits with this log:

Seems that milkyway application search for fglrx driver, but for newer card the future driver will be amdgpu or amdgpu-pro.

Thanks.

Update:
I've switched to 2nd generation of GCN cards, and it seems to work correctly even with some warnings:

<core_client_version>7.8.4</core_client_version>
