Should be fixed now since Dave pushed out the backmerge to drm-next
with the resolution.

I'm sorry about the mess this caused but Linus' interleaved merge
window has caused quite a havoc with my branch model here. But since I
have everything ready already and no outstanding fixes I've moved
drm-intel-fixes already over to track 3.17 and gather patches on top
of the all the work readied before the merge window.

I think you should drop drm-intel-fixes until 3.16 is out and the
merge window properly public, otherwise this mess will repeat.
