3.5 regression on i915

Chris, Daniel,

since version 3.5, my Asus EeePC 1005HA bugs during startx. I didn't
have the time to investigate until this evening.

I could bisect the commits and found that the following one was merged
in 3.5-rc1 and is responsible for these bugs that can reliably be
triggered :

1b50247a8ddde4af5aaa0e6bc125615372ce6c16 is the first bad commit
commit 1b50247a8ddde4af5aaa0e6bc125615372ce6c16

drm/i915: Remove the list of pinned inactive objects

Simplify object tracking by removing the inactive but pinned list. The
only place where this was used is for counting the available memory,
which is just as easy performed by checking all objects on the rare
occasions it is required (application startup). For ease of debugging,
we keep the reporting of pinned objects through the error-state and
debugfs.

I tried to revert it from 3.5.6-rc1 but it does not revert cleanly at all
and I'm totall unfamiliar with this code to attempt anything sane at this
time of the night.

The crash happens here in i915_gem_entervt_ioctl() :

3659 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&dev_priv->mm.active_list));
3660 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&dev_priv->mm.flushing_list));
-> 3661 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&dev_priv->mm.inactive_list));
3662 mutex_unlock(&dev->struct_mutex);

---[ end trace dd332ec083cbd513 ]---

I have the full dmesg if that can help. I do not have KMS and have not
tested 3.6-* yet.

$ grep I915 .config
CONFIG_DRM_I915=y
# CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS is not set

Please tell me if you want more info (config, full dmesg, etc... didn't
want to pollute the list) or if you want me to test any patch. I'm willing
to help getting this issue fixed.

Thanks,
Willy
