With this patch after XWindows freezes, I get :

[   70.433064] wlan0: no IPv6 routers present
[  227.490064] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer

freeze Xorg.log : http://userweb.kernel.org/~jaswinder/acer_netbook/Xorg_log.txt

So it means this patches shifted the BUG and warning messages after
some time. So I can only work on XWindows for few minutes with this
patch.
Andrew patch is in linus git tree. Can you please update your patch
above Andrew patch. So that I can do further testing.

Thanks,
