Hi Heiko,

Thanks for this. I blacklisted the panfrost driver and X magically
started working again.

I'll try to do a bisect later to find the offending commit though.

In related news, it also seems that the sound and wifi drivers aren't
working either in 5.2 (although I need to do a bit more testing to
confirm the latter).

Best,
Alex
