the best way to bisect the x86.git-only commits is to do:
git-bisect bad x86/latest git-bisect good x86/base
the 'base' branch is the upstream tree that x86.git is based against. This will minimize the number of bisection points as well, because you'll only bisect x86.git patches.
[ and make sure you test x86/base first to establish that it's truly 'good' :-) ]
