dmesg

I use systemd's tmpfiles to power off the Radeon DIS early during boot to save
power. This works fine with kernel 3.11.1 but it breaks with 3.12-rc1. I
removed the systemd rule and tried to power the card off manually (echo OFF >
/sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch). I got a kernel warning and
vga_switcheroo died. See the attached file for full dmesg dump.
