Public bug reported:
i915_bdw driver module in the trusty kernel is currently based on
v3.14+backports, but it has turned out to be insufficient on real
systems causing system freezes and/or GPU hangs with certain workloads.
Some issues have been worked around but they trigger other bugs, and
backporting bisected fixes dind't fix them on this branch.
Rebasing the driver to v3.15 brings a lot of fixes and a better platform
for future work.
