I tried doing a "do-release-upgrade" on my 15.04 install, and after re-enabling the sources disabled during the upgrade and upgrading all the packages, Kodi fails to load on boot, so I gather something is different in 15.10 as opposed to 15.04.
Ideally, I'd wait to do a new fresh install until 16.04 LTS is launched, so I can keep my install for a while, but running on 15.04 which is now an unsupported OS makes me uncomfortable.
The first post uses 15.10, upgrades are not supported. I will change to 16.04 soon.

The part you write in your post above is understandable to me, but what I don't fully understand is the solution. Is conversionless output only possible when the display is in full range, because otherwise the driver downscales everything? Why not make a passthrough mode for both fullrange and limited then?
I'm sorry if my question is kind of disjointed and repeated.
See my custom kernels and the OpenELEC images, those exactly have such a kernel patch, but as this needs installing a custom kernel ... I described a workaround that works "out of the box".
