@Mike - could you try with the patch from bug #41059, which is at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~eugeni/kernel? There is one patch at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~eugeni/kernel/commit/?h=edid-i915 and another at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~eugeni/kernel/commit/?h=edid-drm, they do the same thing but on different levels. There is no need to apply them both at the same time, just one at a time.
Could you check if any of those would fix - or improve - the issue for you?
The problem here has nothing to do with modesetting. There are no displays even attached to the radeon. The delay is due to fetching the rom from acpi. I've updated the summary appropriately.
