I just read the news at
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQ5Njg, which says
"Kenneth's patches don't appear to eliminate the driver issues but rather allow
DOTA 2 to run for about three hours before hanging."

Sorry for the misunderstanding I caused, apparently my English is too bad to
deliver. That was not what I meant to say.

The hanging didn't happen again! The patch was good! I played DOTA2 for 3 hours
before I stopped playing. NO hanging, so I felt it's time to let Kenneth know
the patch worked. Since 3 hours' testing wasn't conclusive enough, I added
"I'll post if it hangs again".

I hope this clarifies. I'll try to contact phoronix to let them know too.

P.S I played more DOTA2 today. Good news: still no hanging. Now I have been
testing the patch for about 10 hours so I can conclude with 99% confidence that
the patch fixes the problem.

P.S2 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69379 seems to be a
duplicate. One of you mesa knowledgeables can check on that.
