I was running kms_flip yesterday to test out BYT.  Getting the same hang after
flip-vs-panning-vs-hang.  Haven't have a chance to bisect it yet.  

But if I running just the flip-vs-panning-vs-hang subtest multiple times, I
don't see the hang.  Only will get the hang when running all subtests.  And it
hang at the same location.
