journalctl output for crash

Switching my DisplayPort attached monitor on (or off and then on again) while
booted to multiuser target (no Xorg or Wayland) causes a kernel Oops, followed
by soft-lockups which render the system unusable.

Doing the same while at the full Graphical target causes gnome-shell to crash,
but it is possible to recover the system by logging in again.

The kernel error and IP are:
>May 24 23:25:28 fedora-workstation.home kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000003b0
>May 24 23:25:28 fedora-workstation.home kernel: IP: [<ffffffffa0152055>] radeon_connector_edid+0x5/0x70 [radeon]

Full journal from a reproduction of the bug will be attached, as will lspci
-nn.

I have isolated this using git bisect to the following commit (the patch for
which is attached to this bug).
This is a commit currently part of the linux-stable tree and lies between 4.0.2
and 4.0.3
