OK.  Git bisect tells me this:

57c219633275c7e7413f8bc7be250dc092887458 is the first bad commit
commit 57c219633275c7e7413f8bc7be250dc092887458

    drm/i915: revert eDP bpp clamping code changes
    
    The behaviour around handling the eDP bpp value from vbt has been
    slightly changed in
    
    commit 3600836585e3fdef0a1410d63fe5ce4015007aac
    Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch>
    Date:   Wed Mar 27 00:44:59 2013 +0100
    
        drm/i915: convert DP autodither code to new infrastructure
    
    The old behaviour was that we used the plane's bpp (usually 24bpp) for
    computing the dp link bw, but set up the pipe with the bpp value from
    vbt if available. This takes the vbt bpp override into account even
    for the dp link bw configuration.
    
    On Paulo's hsw machine this resulted in a slower link clock and a
    black screen - but the mode actually /should/ fit even with the lower
    clock. Until we've cleared up simply stay bug-for-bug compatible with
    the old code.
    
    While at it, also restore a debug message lost in:
    
    commit 4e53c2e010e531b4a014692199e978482d471c7e

The bisect log is below.  I can try to revert it directly on top of
Linus' latest tree later.

I haven't gotten to this quite yet.  I'll try to get to it over the
weekend.
