As discussed at [1], this triggers a small regression with Debian
wheezy userspace (X freezing instead of erroring out).  libdrm hasn't
been updated in wheezy since then, and I wouldn't be surprised if
other distros were affected, too.  Has there been a kernel patch since
then to avoid that?

Though I wouldn't mind seeing this applied anyway, FWIW, as long as
the announcement mentions the userspace bugfix needed.

Thanks,
Jonathan
