Yes, both of them:

mike@...n:~/work/git/kernel-upstream> git merge-base --is-ancestor 5be323562c6a babf0bb978e3 && echo yes
yes

(7e284070abe5 is a later mainline snapshot so it also contains
5be323562c6a)

But it's likely that commit 5be323562c6a fixed most of the problem and
only some corner case was left as most bisect steps had many more error
messages and some even crashed before I was able to even log into KDE.
Compared to that, the mainline snapshots show much fewer errors, no
distorted picture and no crash; on the other hand, applications like
firefox or stellarium seem to trigger the errors quite consistently.
