Will Mesa 19.3 and Linux kernel 5.4 arrive in time for RX 5500?

I don't have experience with RX 5700 but I saw posts in Reddit about Linux gamers having stability issues with RX 5700 series.

I'm waiting for RX 5500 and I'm curious if it will have Day 1 support for Linux gaming.

My distro is Manjaro XFCE and currently on Linux 5.3 with Mesa 19.2.4.

According to the release calendar, Mesa 19.3.0 isn't far off either.

I hope that RX 5500 would be priced right. The RX 550 is bad in terms of price-to-performance.
