I am using a 64-bit Kabini based system (AMD Athlon 5350) with Kodi 14.0 on an
up-to-date Arch linux.
Kodi plays this 
https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/hi10p_sample.mp4?w=AAC8qnXfS0xxWbd5Fc2bkvWxMxeqlUiSkL-Dxe5C5BDVyw&dl=1&_subject_uid=6760021
small sample file fine with kernel 3.16.x, but with kernel >= 3.17 the playback
is only 1 fps (like a slideshow). It is a hi10p video, so Kodi uses pure
software decoding.

I've done a git bisect between 3.16 and 3.17-rc1 and found that
02376d8282b88f07d0716da6155094c8760b1a13 is the first bad commit.

Then I applied the patch found in comment 30 of bug 84627 attachment 11024 [details] (as
I use 64-bit system).

This patch worked around the problem on 3.17 and on the latest 3.19-rc5 kernel
as well and now Kodi plays the above video 24 fps.
