Thank you for the patch. This looks too big to review to me, although other sponsors may disagree. So, though I don't usually work in the desktop area, I disagree with your statement "Regression potential here seems minimal". This might be why some other sponsors have been unwilling to touch this. Can I suggest that you bisect the changes to find the single fix needed to solve the problem, and then submit a debdiff with just that change? SRU policy says that to minimise regression risk to users, we should backport a minimal fix where possible.

This might not apply if there is a bigger picture plan to update the Intel driver, but I presume there isn't one since this bug has languished for a while.

HTH.
