My guess is that you've worked around these edid stalls with drm_kms_helper.poll=0 and the above commit breaks that w/a. That patch was shot down unfortunately. If you can't reproduce these stalls on older kernels when removing the poll=0 option, then something else broke.
You are correct. Before that commit, the stuttering behavior is present with poll=1, but not with poll=0. Starting with that commit, the behavior is present nomatter the poll setting.
Am I correct in thinking that this is a problem without a clear solution?
