Hello,
I've found a suspicious circular locking dependency in i915 by lockdep.
It seems main driver initialization thread and sub fbdev configuration
thread take locks in different order implicitly. Please check it.
The lockdep report is here.

I've hit this on my DELL XPS15 which has skylake CPU/GPU.
