Just a heads up... Installing this driver locked my fan speed at 40% on MSI Afterburner when I restarted, I had to reconfigure my fan speeds...

Well, as I expected, the issue has not been fixed. Creating a profile for apps like Skype that wake the second card from ULPS sleep for no reason, and setting CF to disabled still doesn't do anything and the second card still turns on.
For games that have visual bugs due to CF-incompatibility, like XCOM - Enemy Unknown in which the cover indicator disappears in a CF-enabled setup and cannot be fixed without disabling CF globally, again the issue cannot be bypassed by creating a profile for the game and setting CF to disabled. I am not really sure what they think they have fixed in this driver because as far as I can see, CF-disabling behavior is exactly as broken as it was before. I am going to report this again.
This has always been the case since the first Crimson driver. When the driver is reset during update, the "Auto" option in AfterBurner turns off on its own after you either manually reset Afterburner or reboot the system. The exact same thing happens when you enable/disable CF globally which resets the driver. The only workaround is to close Afterburner, perform the operation that resets the driver, and then reopen Afterburner.
Let's see if I can finally disable CF in Skype/Firefox/etc. I don't have high hopes, though.

In Rise of the Tomb Raider it causes some flickering in DX11, and on DX12 it just stutters every 8 seconds or so...it wasnt present on 16.4.1 nor 16.3.1

Nice the Freesync is working with DX12 game at least for RoTTR and AoTS but hitman isn't able to use Freesync as the Exclusive Fullscreen is greyed out.

RESOLVED ISSUES
Some DirectX® 9 applications cannot disable AMD Crossfire™ technology mode through Radeon Settings.
Let's see if I can finally disable CF in Skype/Firefox/etc. I don't have high hopes, though.
