Looks like you're using an old version of xf86-video-modesetting, or another generic driver which doesn't correctly handle 128x128 hardware cursors. Please use the radeon driver from a current version of xf86-video-ati; with glamor enabled, that also provides X-Video support.
Thanks for the hints! Bringing drv-ati,drv-modesetting,glamor up gives me the correct cursor, and I get X-Video after bring mesa (and llvm) up - from up-to-date fedora 20 to the not-yet-alpha fedora 21-ish.
The mouse cursor totally disappeared after GUI login in the first reboot (and I had to use vt2 to reboot the system again) and video playback showed very strange colors - almost B/W-ish - after the first X restart, but both wierdness seems to be gone in later reboots, so far.
So as far as I am concerned, I just need attachment 150801 going upstream, and possibly the hibernate cik_ring_test/radeon_dp_link_train_cr error issue looked at. FWIW, I tested attachment 150801 against 3.16.2 (or rather, adapted fedora's 3.16.2-200 to include the patch).
