Right, looks like we have an issue with setting up the hardware for
KMS/GEM whilst it is still active. As we disable the outputs anyway for
the KMS takeover, we can arrange to do so first and so prevent this bug.
The side-effect will be that initial screen blanking will last a little
bit longer.

That's an old userspace bug, which so far no one has been able to
reproduce on the upstream ddx.
