I was able to identify the commit which fixed my boot crashes, so I
cherry-picked 80aa93128653 ("drm/i915: disable_shared_pll doesn't
work on pre-gen5") on top of all otherwise untestable commits. This
allowed bisection to proceed:
b8afb9113c519a8bd742f7df8c424b0af69a75cd is the first bad commit
commit b8afb9113c519a8bd742f7df8c424b0af69a75cd

drm/i915: Keep GMCH DPLL VGA mode always disabled
We disable the DPLL VGA mode when enabling the DPLL, but we enaable it
again when disabling the DPLL. Having VGA mode enabled even in unused
DPLLs can cause problems for CHV, so it seems wiser to always keep it
disabled. And let's just do that on all GMCH platforms to keep things
as similar as possible between them.

Unfortunately it does not revert cleanly on master.
