<pre>So what I thought might have been happening was that we reused an incorrectly
sized cached framebuffer. Not so sure after reading i915_gem_framebuffer.
However, I've implemented a defense against using the wrong framebuffer size:

sna: Flush the scanout cache after resizing the display
And ensure that any new scanout allocations make the requested size.
It will be worth updating xf86-video-intel.git and seeing if that makes any
difference (will be in ppa:xorg-edgers in a few hours).</pre>
