OK, with -rc7 and the i915 fixes, there seems to be a marked
improvement.  I can no longer crash the crtc by using lots of xrandr
switches, which was the principal problem.

I've so far only got one of these in the logs

[14858.635035] [drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR*
CPU pipe B FIFO underrun

And the only residual problem seems to be that the monitor goes blank
periodically, but this can be fixed by switching resolution a couple of
times.

I haven't seen any of the link training errors so far and I've run
through my usual battery of be nasty to the external monitor tests.
