Hello Christian

It took me a while to regather my bugzilla login info, so I'm not sure whether
you pushed this fix into kernel-git already or still are awaiting feedback,
anyway ... I'm quoting my testing results I wrote in the debian bugtracker
(#770790):

That small patch in attachment #163891 does indeed fix the screen flickering
for me.

I built three versions of radeon.ko against 3.16.7-ckt2 from debian/testing:

1) vanilla version: reproducible flickering, it's even easier to reproduce by
quickly dragging a medium sized window around in circles
2) superseded version: (attachment #159331): no flickering, might contain a
typo on line 1002, but I did not fix that one and it ran flawless for days
3) current version: (#attachment 163891): no flickering

So to sum up: this small fix in #163891 is a blessing, I vote for pushing this
if it hasn't happened already.
