Fix S3 on some Valleyview/Baytrail systems, switch to i915_bdw

[Timo Aaltonen]

We've identified a commit in 3.16 to fix S3 on certain Baytrail systems, but it alone is not enough to fix the bug when backported to 3.13. Further investigation shows that it would likely need backporting chunks of i915 from 3.14 which is not feasible. The better option is to switch BYT to use i915_bdw, which has been tested to be stable.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-trusty' to 'verification-done-trusty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
