Apparently one of the features being added for the 4.11 kernel is support for a few new devices such as the Wacom Intuos Pro, Microsoft Surface 3 and 4 Type Cover Pro. I don't use any of these devices myself but i'm sure it is good news for those that do.

Edit: I guess I should have said "to be supported" rather than "supported" as the 4.11 kernel isn't available just yet.
 
I was reading about the upcoming update last night, looks like the Surface 4 is also supported in 4.11. Quite a considerable list of improvements.
 
So when is this coming out? My Surface Pro 3 these days is a test rig I use to run Windows Insider builds and I've been thinking about trying out Linux again on it
 
Mostly what I am seeing is they have been pushing the touch/stylus control.

Using the last couple of kernels as a guide I would say 1-2 months although it may be less.
