I assume that we're referring to

commit 3188a24c256bae0ed93d81d82db1f1bb6060d727
Author: =?utf-8?q?Michel_D=C3=A4nzer?= <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date:   Mon Dec 11 18:32:27 2006 +1100

    i915_vblank_tasklet: Try harder to avoid tearing.
    
    Previously, if there were several buffer swaps scheduled for the same 
vertical
    blank, all but the first blit emitted stood a chance of exhibiting tearing. 
In
    order to avoid this, split the blits along slices of each output top to 
bottom.

(and yup, that's how the Author: is recorded in git)

Unfrortunately that patch doesn't trivially revert, so I can't send you a
patch to test.
