Subject[BISECTED] drm: random hang since 620f378 "drm: prune modes when ..."
Date
After upgrading one of my machines to 2.6.32, I saw hangs after one to thirty minutes after
booting, with random data written to parts of the frame buffer. I've bisected it down
to 620f37811d "drm: prune modes when output is disconnected.", which was merged
in 2.6.32-rc1. Connecting a serial console does not reveal any output at the time of
the crash.

The machine uses an Intel G45 chipset with the i915 kernel mode setting enabled.

I have no clue what that patch does or why reverting it fixes the problem but 2.6.32
with this revert applied has not shown these hangs yet.
