I think there was a solution, but probably posted in a different thread.
I made add some confusion here, but it seems that there were several different
possible causes for the symptoms that you see.

For me it was intel driver starting to use MSI (MFC from head).
The solution was either to disable MSI via hint or to use the following patch from
Robert Noland:
