I can confirm seeing this bug on:

Kernel driver in use: i915
Looking through the changes from v3.8.2 to v3.8.3, there weren't really
that many suspects. This partial (to avoid having to change any
following patches) revert of commit 2a98104 ("drm/i915: reorder setup
sequence to have irqs for output setup") fixes the problem for me. I
have no idea why, so I leave it to Daniel and the other wise men working
on this driver to explain and cleanup :)
