I don't know if it can help upstream, but Alex asked in <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=91880#c1">comment #1</a> for vbios
dump, perhaps he will need yours too! (he wrote how to do that)

Well, if your Xserver is not able to get DRI working, you probably do not have
the opportunity to trigger the bug. It's something you must fix first. ^_^
To prevent the auto profile to hang up your GPU while you're playing with your
xserver to fix it while dpm is enabled, do something like that, they looks like
safe options for some people like me:
echo 'low' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level'
echo 'battery' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_state'
After you get your xserver working with direct rendering enabled, try to do:
echo 'auto' > '/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level'
and see if it still crashes.</pre>
