I can confirm this bug on both Ubuntu 16.04 and 17.04 on Intel Kabylake
i7-7500U with Sunrise Point chipset.  The 4.11 kernel you suggested
fixes the problem, so it is fixed upstream.  We should try and backport
the fix into at least 16.04 and 17.04.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

** Tags added: kernel-fixed-upstream xenial

Title:
  i915 driver makes linux crash

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I recently upgraded from ubuntu 16.10 to 17.04.

  Today I got several crash which seems to imply the i915 driver.

  I had the crash while using gnome-shell, and also while using unity.

  As I work, the system completely crash.

  The problem is always in:

  /build/linux-
  2NWldV/linux-4.10.0/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c:4813
  skylake_pfit_enable+0x140/0x160 [i915]

  each time I get the message:

  [drm:skylake_pfit_enable [i915]] *ERROR* Requesting pfit without
  getting a scaler first

  
  I attach the relevant kern.log parts.
