Skylake/6th gen + Intel HD 520 video working fine for me. ~amd64 kernel but
amd64 linux-firmware. I went straight to ~amd64 for the kernel since the
hardware is pretty new, and using the latest kernel seems prudent to me
when using recently released hardware. System was built when ~amd64 was
4.4. Everything worked.
