Something is pretty decently broken here. Can you please file a bug at
freedesktop.org against the i915 drm? A few other things
- Can you check whether upgrading the ddx to 2.17 fixes this? Also please
  attach your Xorg.log and full dmesg.
- Please grab intel-gpu-tools.git from

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/intel-gpu-tools/

  and attach the output of tools/intel_reg_dumper to the bug report.
- If you're using swap, can you check whether disabling it works around
  the issue?

And please put me as the assignee of the bug.

Thanks, Daniel
