Bisection lead to commit 7ffb0ce31cf9 ("drm/radeon: Don't register
Thunderbolt eGPU with vga_switcheroo"). Reverting this commit on top of
next-20170515 fixes the issue for me.

My box is a Dell laptop which most certainly hasn't got any Thunderbolt
circuitry.

lspci says that my radeon card is a
  01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Mars XTX [Radeon HD 8790M] (rev ff) (prog-if ff)

or in raw form:

  01:00.0 0300: 1002:6606 (rev ff)


Thanks,

Nicolai
