If that turns out to be the bad commit, it doesn't really surprise me,
and that in itself is depressing.

It might be helpful if you could add drm.debug=14 module parameter, and
provide dmesgs from boot both with and without the above commit (it's
enough to see i915 load). Please also provide
/sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_opregion.
