--- Comment #1 from Rainer Fiebig <jrf at mailbox.org> ---
Yes, it's the i915-backports that cause the problem:

- diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c
b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c
        index 49de476..277a802 100644
- diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h
b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h
        index a19ec06..3ce9ba3 100644

After reversing *both* (else the kernel won't compile) the flicker is gone, no
more messages in dmesg. 

4.4 is also unusable with those processors b/c of i915-problems
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99737).


And I have a premonition now concerning 4.14. ;)
