["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Khurshid Alam, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from
kernel 3.18 to 3.18.5 in order to identify the last bad commit, followed
immediately by the first good one. Once this commit has been identified,
then it may be reviewed as a candidate for backporting into your
release. Could you please do this following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F
?

Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit
bisecting.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Unity(7) freezes completely after Kernel update (3.18.0.9.9) on intel
  GMA-965 (Vivid)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After I update the kernel to 3.18.0.9.9, Unity freezes few minutes
  after login on Vivid. This happens for any compiz based session like
  gnome-flashback(compiz). I tried booting with both the systemd &
  upstart from boot menu, but the outcome did not change. Ctrl+Alt+F1 or
  Alt+SysRq does not work after freeze.

  Just before the freeze syslog prints following error:
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------
  Jan 24 20:50:26 Compaq-610 kernel: [  114.028185] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at /build/buildd/linux-3.18.0/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c:9916 intel_check_page_flip+0xa7/0xb0 [i915]()

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------

  I have attached the complete syslog.txt  & xorg.txt
  (http://paste.ubuntu.com/9852608/) for the session.

  It could also be a bug in kernel, however It does not crash at all on
  non-compiz session like Gnome-Flashback (Metacity).
