Public bug reported:

How to reproduce:
* In lightdm login screen, switch to tty2 (Ctrl+Alt+F2)
* Execute this after login:

    sudo su
    service lightdm stop
    echo DDIS > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
    # frozen here, can't switch to other ttys; but keyboard input is still 
received, eg.:
    reboot

Actually I want to switch to AMD Radeon graphics, because in X session
it would not work.
