Well, I rely on information provided by intel people who say "This release has 
been tested on following platforms: G45, GM45, GM965, G965, G35, G33, 945GM, 
945GME, 915GM, 855GM.", so I this should include kernel + patches (as that's 
part of "release").

Maybe someone on intel-gfx@ will confirm that.
