OK, perhaps I should have reported this when it happened, but I thought it was the notebook/me/the dog causing it.
I applied the changes from here:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel/patch/?id=d472fcc8379c062bd56a3876fc6ef22258f14a91
albeit on different code lines on 3.18.3 and all is hunky dory again using driver sna!
Greg, me thinks this should go in next -stable.
Thanks!
