The drm-next-kmod port enabled me to finally replace my ageing Thinkpad X220 with newer hardware. The latest update (g20180117_3 -> 4.11.g20180224) to the drm-next-kmod port introduced a regression which causes Xorg on my T470s running 12-current from a few days ago to fail at startup stating that it didn't find any screen.
