Additional notes

 * This device has *some* out-of-tree mainline kernel support (some by @bartcubbins) (and some by @kholk)


 * There are many different display panels used by suzu


 * Xperia X has been supported by Sony Open Devices Project on CAF kernels 3.10, 3.18, 4.4 and now still is on 4.9 with a chance to board the 4.14 hype train


 * There's a good chance one could get graphics, modem etc. working with libhybris on kernel 4.4. There's also a mer-hybris port by Jolla for the official "Sailfish X" SFOS release.


 * Second codename (loire_suzu) comes from Sony's platform naming scheme, where Loire is a family of MSM8956/APQ8956-based devices along with Xperia X Compact (kugo), Xperia Touch [the projector tablet.. thingy] (blanc) and an unannounced, probably prototype device (oak)
