[PATCH] Xserver crash due to ScreenPriv->SavedCursor->bits == 0

[Matthias Hopf]

Sometimes the current Xserver (with intel 2.8.1 with KMS) crashes after
resume from RAM (or disk, but that is broken anyway ATM). I managed to
get a core and analyze it (see attached gdb log).

Long story short, sometimes after resume ScreenPriv->SavedCursor->bits
is NULL, and the server crashes.

The attached patch works around this issue, but it doesn't solve the
mysterious initial issue (why bits is actually NULL). If anybody has a
good idea, or a better idea how to actually solve this...

Thanks

Matthias
