Among this latest batch of Intel DRM kernel driver changes for Linux 4.2 include Skylake plane scalar support, enabling the Haswell command parser, Skylake DC5/DC6 support, DisplayPort compliance/support improvements, fixes for allowing Skylake to work from system resume, the mode-setting code now fully uses atomic state objects, and there's more work on the enablement of the new Intel Broxton hardware.
