Merge tag 'v3.16-rc4' into drm-intel-next-queued

Due to Dave's vacation drm-next hasn't opened yet for 3.17 so I
couldn't move my drm-intel-next queue forward yet like I usually do.
Just pull in the latest upstream -rc to unblock patch merging - I
don't want to needlessly rebase my current patch pile really and void
all the testing we've done already.

that one.
