I'll do that as soon as drm-intel-next has hit -linus. I've written the
original fix and marked it cc: stable so it won't get lost. I've been
rather cautious with pushing this because it's the 3rd trial to fix a bug
in late .35-rc. The previous fixes already caused regressions in -stable
and I'd simply like to avoid causing yet another regression over the same
problem.
