This patch introduces a bug on my infamous "Acer Travelmate
5735Z-452G32Mnss": when KMS takes over, the frame buffer contents
get completely garbled up on screen, with colored stripes and
unreadable text (photo on request). Only when X11 is started, the
screen gets restored again. Closing and re-opening the lid partly
cures the mess, too: it makes the font readable, though horizontally
stretched.

Reverting 49183b2818de6899383bb82bc032f9344d6791ff fixes the
bug.
