In kernel 4.1.6 and earlier, colors look washed out on my LCD monitor unless I set "Broadcast RGB" to "Full" in my xprofile like so:

xrandr --output HDMI1 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full"

When upgrading from kernel 4.1.6 -> 4.2.1, this setting no longer works and colors are washed out. Downgrading back to 4.1.6 works around the problem. I also see the following repeated kernel error in the log with 4.2.1:
