Been monitoring 3.12/3.14 commit logs and it doesn't seem that the fix
is going to land in the kernel without backports. Apparently they are
too old. It seems (from bug 1355044) that they won't backport a fix
without a full bisection.

Here Bib reports a bisection range for the ubuntu kernel linux images:

If you intend to complete the bisection, hopefully this link will save you time:

Title:
  [MSI A88XM-E45][A4-5300] 'buntu 14.04.1 constant reboot without
  nomodeset

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Machine was happy with Xubuntu 13.10, but the software has been
  discontinued and I was forced to upgrade. USB stick with 14.04.1 would
  reboot continuously. USB stick with 14.04.1 server installs
  flawlessly, but then the server itself reboots continuously.

  WORKAROUND: Boot into recovery mode (hidden grub option)
  * Drop to root shell
  * Mount disk for read/write
  * edit /etc/default/grub:  find the line starting with 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=' and add the word nomodeset inside the quotes
  * run update-grub and reboot
