Thanks for your reply.
I saw new commits in your kernel repository:
https://github.com/anholt/linux/tree/vc4-kms-squash-2
It include additional debug or fix?
It seems next upstream kernel with only addition of your patches, can be 
used for rpi2 or further patches missed upstream and present in 
raspberry repository is needed?

Thanks for any reply and sorry for my bad english.
