I think I won't get the answer this way.
Bisecting between 3.7 and 3.8-rc2 (from linus tree) led me to commit
63e1ed2364050073770c085021377d7764969b85 titled "Update vt8500 PWM
driver support", which I think is rather nonsense.
Also, depending on bisected version, sometimes I got kernel panic, but
sometimes (more often) whole system would just freeze completely.

Any other way diagnose this bug?

Adrian
