Also, it would be nice to test Linux 4.17 with the feature-sets we
ship in Stretch and testing/sid, in order to catch any bug like
#883703 ASAP.

Got ideas how could I install 4.17 on Stretch?

```
$ sudo apt install -t experimental linux-headers-4.17.0-rc7-amd64 linux-image-4.17.0-rc7-amd64

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-headers-4.17.0-rc7-amd64 : Depends: linux-compiler-gcc-7-x86 (>= 4.14.17-1~) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages
```

linux-compiler-gcc-7-x86 needs gcc-7 that is not available?

```
linux-compiler-gcc-7-x86 : Depends: gcc-7 (>= 7.2.0-20~) but it is not installable
```

gcc-7 is only in Testing. Will 4.17 be available as Stretch backport at all..?
