Comparing Satish's backtrace and drivers/gpu/drm history, it's clear that
the oops comes from Daniel's 3.8-rc2 45e2b5f640b3 "drm/i915: force restore
on lid open", whose force_restore case now passes down crtc->base.fb.  But
I wouldn't have a clue why that's usually non-NULL but occasionally NULL:
your timing race with a worker entry, perhaps.

And 45e2b5f640b3 contains a fine history of going back and forth, so I
wouldn't want to play further with it out of ignorance - though tempted
to replace the "if (force_restore) {" by an interim safe-seeming
compromise of "if (force_restore && crtc->base.fb) {".
