I've mixed things up with the other reporter which was full of the
subsequent oopses. But after I've sorted out why drm-intel-next
doesn't blow up the same way I see the bug now. Still baffled that we
underrun the refcount apparently since the same pile of legacy code +
atomic glue is used for the old modeset ioctl. But obviously something
is different, so still digging.

The gem_free_object backtrace is a completely unrelated issue. Fix for
that is in drm-intel-fixes and on the way to you:

commit 62e537f8d568347bbe4e00d7803a838750cdc618
Author: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@xxxxxxxxx>

drm/i915: Fix frontbuffer false positve.

If that one doesn't help please scream ;-)
