dmesg output with drm.debug=0x1e

When docking the T450s into the docking station (Lenovo Pro Dock) with an external monitor connected, the kernel frequently crashes.

I have enabled kernel crash dumps and drm.debug=0x1e, and at least got the dmesg output. But I currently don't have the debugging symbols (the kernel is from the Ubuntu mainline PPA), so cannot provide a full backtrace at the moment.

Please let me know if this is needed. And is compiling with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y enough, or are additional steps needed?

I also reported the bug on bugs.freedesktop.org ( https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94534 ), because I wasn't sure where the best place to report this is.

And I also tested the drm-intel-nightly kernel (linux-image-4.5.0-994-generic_4.5.0-994.201603132257_amd64.deb from the Ubuntu kernel PPA), which causes the same crash (apart from the addresses the exact same stack trace).
