Proposed patches
Since xf86-video-intel 2.8.1 has been released, nominations here will be considered for future 2.8.x bugfix releases, if we do any.
Below here, please list patches to nominate them for merging into the 2.8 branch. The commits must already exist in the master branch, and have received review and testing there.
