Arguably the regression in 4.4 with drm/i915 that causes screen

then on again.
I don't see any related patch in Greg's stable-queue for 4.4:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git/tree/queue-4.4
He's over 300 patches behind. They may or may not still be to come.
It's also possible this issue is a new bug and is still present
upstream and there's nothing to backport.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1310252 is the tracking bugzilla.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93892 sounds like it may be the
same issue (started with 4.4.0). The suggested fix doesn't sound like it
actually fixed anything though and the devs are aware of it so the best course
of action here is to probably continue to monitor.
Thanks,
Laura
