After updating the kernel to 2.6.38-rc5 screen gets corrupted when video mode
switches for KMS. This is on laptop eMachines E640G with integrated ATI
Mobility Radeon HD 5470. It was working just fine with -rc4. I have bisected
the commits and this one was pointed out as the culprit:

    drm/radeon/kms: hopefully fix pll issues for real (v3)

    The problematic boards have a recommended reference divider
    to be used when spread spectrum is enabled on the laptop panel.
    Enable the use of the recommended reference divider along with
    the new pll algo.

    v2: testing options

    v3: When using the fixed reference divider with LVDS, prefer
    min m to max p and use fractional feedback dividers.
