So root-cause is that vblank waits die, and from one of the bug reports it
sounds like drm-tip has that fixed. For that we need a reverse bisect to
find the bugfix so that we can backport it.

But vblank timeout shouldn't result in oopses, the helpers are meant to
carry on in such a case (although with some horribly long timeouts). From
the backtraces I think I know what's going on and how to paper over that,
typing a patch right now.
