This one doesn't actually compile on git head:


drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_opregion.c: In function
‘intel_opregion_get_panel_type’:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_opregion.c:1047:17: error: ‘dev_priv’
undeclared (first use in this function)
  if (IS_SKYLAKE(dev_priv))

So it's going to be hard to backport to stable.

However, I've applied it on top of the drm branch and there have been
no flicker problems after 12h of use, so you can add a tested by from
me if you want.
