--- Comment #32 from Daniel Vetter <daniel at ffwll.ch> ---
We've improved the handling of the panel fitter a bit for older platforms in
3.9-rc1, so could be that the underlying race is now finally fixed.
Unfortunately those patches still have a few issues (regressions) left, so I
don't like to backport them to stable kernels for now.
Relevant patches are

drm/i915: clean up panel fitter handling in lvds
If those two indeed fix things for you, we could backport them once the
regression they introduce is tackled.
If those aren't the fixes, a reverse bisect to hunt for the first good commit
would be interesting.
