Making the list includes updated atomic watermark support, color management, DSI panels for Broxton, cleaned up VBT parsing, a lot of code refactoring, reworked DisplayPort detection, many small fixes to the runtime power management code, GPU hang fixes for Skylake GT3/GT4, faster execlist code, and more.
