mjh, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

As per http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-
support/product/inspiron-15-3552-laptop/drivers an update to your
computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (4.0.1). If you update
to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it
change anything?

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not.
3) Please mark this report Status New. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
   [drm:intel_pipe_update_end [i915]] *ERROR* Atomic update failure on
  pipe A

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Dell 3552 Inspiron laptop, bought with Ubuntu 14.04LTS upgraded, to
  15.10.

  Every few minutes the following appears in the syslog:
  [ 6355.488381] [drm:intel_pipe_update_end [i915]] *ERROR* Atomic update failure on pipe A (start=1171 end=1172)

  Does not seem to be related to any specific user activity, though I note the Chrome 47 displays many graphical artifacts in images.
  Additionally, the below stack trace often appears:
