Kernel config

Hi all,

recently i changed my Gfx card from a evergreen/hd5770 to a pitcairn/r290
(Chipset: "PITCAIRN" (ChipID = 0x6811)).
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Curacao PRO [Radeon R9 270] [1002:6811]

On a second partition a realtime system without any problems. The system ran
for a year with the kernel 3.10.20-rt17 perfect fine. 

Now as i updated my hardware with the new gfx card i started the RT system, i
assumed the problem is the gfx card driver. I updated the kernel to the latest
in 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git . The
first try was v3.14.31-rt28. But it froze like the old (v3.10.20-rt17) kernel.
After some testing i found out that the old (3.10) and the new (3.14) kernel
start the machine when i disable KMS (radeon.modeset = 0). 

The exact point in the startup procedure is "Waiting for uevents". At this
stage udev get started and loads the modules. 

After testing various kernel versions i picked 3.14.31-rt28 this did start the
machine without the commandline "radeon.modeset=0" and i thought i have a
working commit, but X did not start and i tried to load the module manually. At
this point (modprobe radeon) the machine froze again.

I attached the old evergreen card in the machine and tested with this card what
configuration runs. I got the following results:

Evergreen:
v3.10.20-rt17    Ok
v3.14.20-rt17    Not Ok (freeze)

Pitcairn:
v3.10.20-rt17    Not Ok (freeze)
v3.14.20-rt17    Not Ok (freeze)


So i just filled this bugreport against the newest version i tried.

What info should i add?
