The patch applied during Xorg 6.8.2 developement with this changelog entry:
   * xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/ati/radeon_driver.c
   Bugzilla #1912 (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1220)
   attachment #980 (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=980):
   Fix garbage screen on radeon cards which may appear after a system
   suspend/resume cycle.
   Patch by Matthias Hopf <mhopf at suse.de>

was later found to be an incorrectly merged version of bug #1912/patch #1433 
and bug #1220/patch #980, and introduced an additional call to
RADEONSetFBLocation() in RADEONAdjustFrame(), where it should not have been.
This extra call should be removed for the 6.8.3 release. (Since it was a patch
merge error on the 6.8.x branch, it didn't get into HEAD and doesn't affect
that branch.)

For full gory details, see the thread "Patch for bug #1912 applied incorrectly
to 6.8 branch" on
