I don't expect disabling KMS to help overall. The nature of this bug is
that it's timing-dependent, so just about any change can affect the
stability for better or worse. On an affected system, I would often get
a repeatable freeze on bootup after upgrading an unrelated package just
because the new disk layout changed the timing of the boot process.

So you might get reports that disabling KMS helps, but I'd expect it to
break as many systems as it helps.
