I've finally bisected between 3.10 and 3.11:

78ae0ad403daf11cf63da86923d2b5dbeda3af8f is the first bad commit
commit 78ae0ad403daf11cf63da86923d2b5dbeda3af8f
Author: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Wed Aug 21 11:30:36 2013 +1000

    drm/nv04/disp: fix framebuffer pin refcounting

I've booted that commit and one commit older few times. Every time I
booted 78ae0ad I got corruption. Every time I booted 6ff8c76 (it's the
earlier commit), it was OK.

Ben: any idea why this commit caused regression for my hardware? From
the commit message I assume it was supposed to affect some ancient
nv04 hardware only. Did it accidentally touch my nv4e path code maybe?
