Title:
  [i915_bpo] Rebase driver to 4.2~pre

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Upstream i915 code has been feature-frozen for drm-next, and rebasing
  i915_bpo to it is fairly simple. We need all the drm_atomic* changes
  to date though, in order to avoid oopses loading the driver.
  Thankfully i915_bpo is the only driver that uses them (besides msm),
  so there's no chance of regressing other drivers that we care about.
