drm2 in base supports everything from gen3 to gen6 and did some entrance
into gen7 for Intel.

Practically it means that the list is
	G33 chipset graphics (gen3)
	G45 (gen4), both cover everything that has chipset graphics for Core2,
	core i5 6xx AKA desktop Westmere (gen5)
	Sandy/Ivy Bridge (gen6)
	unstable Haswell (gen7) (I dropped it when upstream had still
	  major stability issues)

Broadwell does not work at all, and I am not sure about Atoms even when
the same generation of graphics was used by the north bridge.
