[Problem]
if I try to turn the external display up above 1600x1200 the kernel oopses 
(unrecoverably) inside i915_gen_init_ioctl.  See attached photo showing the 
full trace.

[Original Description]
Following on from bug 745112 but on precise - similar but different symptoms so 
a separate bug.

With an external monitor connected through the doc displayport of a
thinkpad x201, running current precise:

 * the internal screen looks ok
 * if I use the display control panel to try to turn off the internal screen 
and use only the external screen, it looks distorted and flickery, with two 
panels, as if it's trying to show two desktops on the same display; when the 
safety timeout expires it recovers ok
 * if I have the displays side by side and the external display at a low 
resolution, it works ok
 * if I try to turn the external display up above 1600x1200 the kernel oopses 
(unrecoverably) inside i915_gen_init_ioctl
