Hi Jani,

Now that v4.5 has been released, would you consider _backporting_ these 
two patches to allow kbl to boot?

AFAIK, these are the only patches needed,
drm/i915/kbl: Enable PW1 and Misc I/O power wells
[https://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel/commit/?id=16fbc291cb87c7defcd13ad715d3e4af0d523e43]
and
drm/i915/kbl: Adding missing IS_KABYLAKE checks
[https://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel/commit/?id=8d7a1c4a579c4ecfe360044c24dc1fbf97096752]

Thanks,

-Michel
