[Siew Hoon] Hi Darren,
To upgrade the Intel-VA driver to 1.6.0, it also needs to upgrade together with Libva 1.6.0. 
It is because Intel-VA driver got dependency with VA-API version 0.38, this VA-API version only bump in libva1.6.0 version. 
And gstreamer-vaapi 0.6.0 with right now got a lot of fixed. 
Right now yocto using 0.5.10 -> 0.6.0 version (this is version going to use together with libva, intel-va driver 1.6.0 version).

Test with Braswell plaform will be it good enough cover the confidence level to accept the new upgrade?

[Siew Hoon] 
The larger upgrade is target for Gen9 platform supported. 
Yes, and it is also for specific platform for Gen9 got 1 patch which I didn't include at here because it is not been upstream yet.
