exa is the hardware acceleration layer. The radeon driver is handing
something down to the kernel to execute through a DRM ioctl, and it's
not completing promptly.
So either the radeon X driver is suddenly doing something newly wrong
that's taking too long, or the radeon kernel driver is.

The garbled gnome desktop began with 3.8 kernels:

(1) Takes long time for desktop to appear, background changes
to white and then back to normal one time.
During the above reboot testing I noticed that the screen flashes
brightly with occasional garbled rectangles during dracut time, but only
with the 3.8 kernels.
I have only seen xorg log errors one time with the 3.8.0-0.rc3.git1.2
kernel. All other garbled sessions do not show any errors in the xorg log.
Partial installation history of other potential areas to investigate:
