FWIW: 4.14 afaics should work on a lot of Coffee Lake machines if you
boot with i915.alpha_support=1

Once 4.15 is out you could use the "kernel-vanilla-stable" repo from
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Kernel_Vanilla_Repositories , which will
get 4.15 (and 4.15.1, 4.15.2, ...) once its out.

Another alternative is
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jforbes/kernel-stabilization/
in case Justin is setting it up again to stabilize 4.15 (which I assume
he will).
