I cloned the git repository for the drm-38 branch, but I could not apply patch b. After applying the richland patch Jung-Uk Kim posted earlier and rebuilding the kernel, the situation has improved a little. From X I can switch to vt without a crash, the screen merely freezes until I Alt-F9 back to X, which resumes updates of the screen. I can issue commands in the terminal, but nothing shows.

In X I can run glxgears with the expected 60fps, and all in all the display works beautifully.
