That is exactly the way to do it: Build a kernel from that commit and 
see that it fails, then revert the commit and see that the resulting 
kernel succeeds.

(Note: The notion of "version before" doesn't have a firm meaning in 
the kernel, because some commits have multiple parents.  The best way 
to see if a single commit caused a change is to do what I said above: 
revert the commit and see what happens.)

Incidentally, it seems very unlikely that a commit for the drm 
subsystem would have any effect on the behavior of a USB storage 
device.
