Hello,

Since the 3.17.3 kernel when starting X,I got a black screen with no tty
acces,with stable mesa or mesa-git.

If i switch to catalyst,all is fine,also after downgrading the kernel to 3.17.2
i can start X with mesa drivers.

I did a git bisect and the result is:

    drm/radeon: fix speaker allocation setup

    commit 4910403836ded89803fab201d4b5caaa85de3a89 upstream.

    If the sad_count is 0, set the hw to stereo and change
    the error message to a warn.  A lot of monitors don't
    set the speaker allocation block.
