[John Gorkos <556782@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not a solution, but my Gateway LT3103u was essentially useless after
this bug was introduced.  My cheap/easy solution for now is to just
rename the radeon.ko kernel module to radeon.ko.orig.  After I did that,
the corruption disappeared (as did any hope of accelerated 3d graphics,
but hey, it's a netbook man).

sudo mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko.orig

Then reboot (chances are, radeon.ko is loaded and it's a bear to unload)
