Based on
toolchain/toolchain-external/toolchain-external-linaro-arm/Config.in it
is using 4.6.

The question is what happens if kmscube is run on a kernel that doesn't
support DRM_MODE_OBJECT_PLANE (E.G. kernel < 4.7)? If it really needs
support for this then we should simply make the package depend on >= 4.7
headers, and if not we could add a patch to add the include.
