Kernel bisection yielded this as the culprit:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=c51f71679042a5f388d9580ffbede14c897f1e86

Might try to bisect that branch, but it might be more difficult to test.

Title:
  Heavy black flickering after VT switching on Intel graphics

Status in Mir:
  Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in mir package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After running mir_demo_server on VT 1, when I switch to VT 7 then back to VT 1, the demo server really flickers black quite a lot (entire screen, pointer included). I'm not sure, but I also upgraded my kernel to 3.18.2-031802-generic at the same time, if it's because of that, please mark invalid.
