glxgears corruption on gc400lt

I ended up reproducing the corruption on a subsequent boot of 5.4.158.  I
captured a poor recording over VNC; it animates much faster on the actual
panel.

When corrupted, glxgears reports a very low fps.  FPS was much higher (near
100fps) when displaying correctly.

77 frames in 5.0 seconds = 15.340 FPS
75 frames in 5.0 seconds = 14.947 FPS
75 frames in 5.0 seconds = 14.999 FPS
76 frames in 5.0 seconds = 15.058 FPS

I'll be happy to capture more useful debug, but I'm not quite sure what's
most relevant at this point.
