With 6e86d58be3, I get working X. With 0955c1250e ("drm/crtc: take
references to connectors used in a modeset. (v2)"), startx produces a
kernel oops and a blank screen.
4.7-rc1 with 0955c1250e reverted also works, which seems definitive.
The oops is:

One interesting detail I noticed during bisection, but didn't stop to
investigate in detail, is that it sometimes the display doesn't come
back after a reboot (!).
Userland is 32-bit, on a 64-bit kernel. The GPU is an old nVidia one
that's not doing anything more complex then VLC.
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GT216 [GeForce 210] [10de:0a23] (rev a2)
This is a personal machine, so it's easy to test patches, modulo
saving all my work in progress before rebooting.
