Oops, missed that one. You have a gen7 ivb machine, so the bug you've
reference is _definitely_ not yours - that one's for gen2.

Now looking at your error state I've noticed that your mesa is using a
massively outdated version of 3DSTATE_HIER_DEPTH_BUFFER, which has been
fixed with 8.0, the broken version shipped with 7.11.

Please upgrade to the latest released versions of mesa, libdrm,
xf86-video-intel, your bug is very likely fixed already (since 8.0 is
pretty old for gen7).

Yours, Daniel
