picture of garbled screen

I tried to bisect this. but whenever i reach the i915 drm changes computer
locks during boot which defeats the purpose (skipped many commits w/o success).

Im attaching a dmesg of a booting kernel and a picture of the screen. a
letterbox of garbled screen from about [0,10] to [1024,768] (aprox) is garbled.
the rest of the screen works as it should.

Trying to take a screenshot with the gnome-screenshot app produces a correct
image including the area that is garbled.
