Yes! This makes X work for me too. I had gone down the rabbit hole of
trying to get the drmkms to apply the workarounds for gen 8 to my gen 7

still have those work arounds applied, there are only a couple that are
reported to not stick but I haven't noticed any issues yet. Suspend and
resume works.
Great
.
Not likely to suspend and resume on my system (its a desktop development
and build box) but its good to know that it works.
Oddly, the backlight comes up at minimum brightness on resume but
intel_backlight from pkgsrc sorts that.
I can clean up the debug rubbish and send a diff if you are interested
to try to see if that fixes the artifacts you are seeing.
Absolutely. If I could get rid of the artifacts it would be perfect.
They self clear after about a second but they are occasionally
irritating and anything we can do to improve things is a good idea.
I'm going to keep tracking my way through the drm-kmod 5.6 branch for
fixes as well. I'll also be on the lookout for gen4 related fixes as
well. The patch I found referenced a bug report in the freedesktop
bugtracker. So if that's in any way searchable I'll see if I can work
that the other way as well.
