SubjectRe: [2.6.39 regression] i915/kms: garbled screen because of 49183b281 (was: Re: Linux 2.6.39-rc7)

Attached are the requested register dumps:

intel_reg_dump__nomodeset.gz
\___no kms -- no corruption

intel_reg_dump__bad.gz
\___with kms -- corrupted screen contents with staircase
shaped and horizontally stretched scan lines. Unreadable.

intel_reg_dump__lid.gz
\___after closing and reopening lid. The text is now readable,
but horizontally stretched. It looks like there's a dark
pixel between any pair of legitimate font pixels.

intel_reg_dump__x11.gz
\___after starting x11. Now both the x11 screen and virtual
terminals look right.


(BTW: there's also still the problem that the backlight remains off
until I press the "screen darker" key. Maybe this problem is related?
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31522).
