yes, so 3 different bisects from 3 different starting points and it 
bisects each time to:

	commit 29b88e23a9212136d39b0161a39afe587d0170a5
	Merge: 2521129 4e3a25b
	Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
	Date:   Mon Aug 4 18:34:04 2014 -0700

    	Merge tag 'driver-core-3.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/dri
    
	Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
		"Here's the big driver-core pull request for 3.17-rc1.
