One thing worth pointing out, and which could favor the inclusion of that patch : I didn't need to select the radeonfb to be built in, it works as a module as long as it's also added to the initrd. One drawback though, that I haven't investigated, is that the console resolution is then the same as without fb instead of the tiny characters using up the full resolution of the LCD I got when having radeonfb built-in. FWIW, I have an Inspiron 8600 with a Radeon 9600 Mobility.
