It looks like Fedora doesn't patch the -intel driver anymore, instead
they patch xserver to fiddle with the defaults.
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/xorg-x11-server/c/ee515e44b07e37689abf48cf2fffb41578f3bc1d?branch=master
Given the comment and commit description, I'm guessing that list is
everything older than gen4 (haswell) not already defaulting to something
else.
I can't find any attempts to upstream the patch... Also, given the
different formatting, what would be the proper way to bring this into
OE? Rewrite the commit message, leave Author field intact and add a link?
Thanks,
Cal

From memory there are some chipsets which the Intel driver *is* better
on. I recommend we look at the Fedora patches for the intel driver, I
believe that massively reduces the chips that the intel driver will be
the primary driver for. We can then continue to ship both and not
break anything.

Most distros have switched to this, and we're seeing better results in
some areas as well. E.g., on a NUC6CAYS the x11perf -aa10text and
-rgb10text results see a 20x increase.
