drm-intel-testing is drm-intel-next and drm-intel-fixes merged together
(as the time of when I've pushed things out). Gordon Jin said that he
prefers to qa one single branch and that qa will take the job of finding
out whether an issue has been introduced in -fixes or in -next. I agree
that it makes more sense to test everything together, otherwise you'll
miss some of the bugfixes in -fixes.
