In a perfect world we'd get to the roots of every problem, but in
reality we don't have the time to keep debugging issues that seem to be
gone. Especially in areas where we've done a lot of fixing upstream.

If the v4.6-rc kernels still have the issue, but drm-intel-nightly
works, it should be a pretty straightforward reverse bisect to find the
commit that fixed the bug. If you provide that, it may be possible to do
the backport.
