This must be hardware dependent then, yesterday and today I tried to
reproduce on Lenovo T60 with:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a2] (rev 03)

and there is no sign of corruption, I double checked if slab poisoning
is enabled.

On Lenovo T500 with:

00:02.1 Display controller [0380]: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a43] (rev 07)

that is the case. Script attached on previous email trigger corruption
with modeset=1 (on various older and newer kernels) in less then 20
iterations. There is no corruption after 100 iterations if
i915.modeset=0 parameter is used. Some users on RH bugzilla confirmed
that workaround as well.

If you want list of more i915 adapters where the problem happens, I can
check in our bugzilla and provide it.

Thanks
Stanislaw
