log from bisection

In Linux 4.7 and earlier, RimWorld (a steam game) ran at 60fps on my laptop. 
With any later kernel release, the game runs at 30-40fps, stutters, and has
severe input latency.  The issue is 100% reproducible.  drm-tip (6aa0df37d3fc)
exhibits the same issue.


Hardware info: Skylake i7-6700HQ, Dell XP 9550.  The laptop also has an nvidia
gpu.  The issue affects both gpus, but testing purposes, I've only used the
intel gpu.

Software info: Debian stretch, x86_64

Bisection details:  good commit v4.7, bad commit v4.8-rc1.  This leads to a DRM
commit:

a59c2086fe9c489e0a2a86e080ba is the first bad commit
commit ea0000f0d369a59c2086fe9c489e0a2a86e080ba
