I am using Manjaro KDE edition. I have a system with Skylake i5 processor and hybrid graphics.

With an earlier version of kernel 4.4 as well as drivers, PRIME offloading worked properly with the commands xrandr --setprovideroffloadsink radeon Intel
However now after updating the kernel and xf86 drivers, it does not work.
$ xrandr --listproviders

$ xrandr --setprovideroffloadsink 0x3f 0x66

I don't know where exactly the problem is as many packages got updated, which includes the kernel as well as xf86-video-intel and xf86-video-ati packages. I have also installed the linux4.6 kernel but I get the same problem on that too.
