As of this moment 4.6 is still on rc7. The 4.6 driver supports up through the as of yet unreleased Kaby Lake chip. In other words this driver adds additional support for Haswell PCIIDs not yet supported in the 3.8 driver, Broadwell, Skylake, and Kaby Lake. I haven't tested on a Skylake yet. However, I will be getting one Friday. At which point I'll be better able to vouch for its support.

I very much hope to have this phase done before code freeze. I will update the list as soon as there is anything to test.
