Useful for me. Just confirms that you have an equivalent machine to this Lenovo x201s, on which those patches were tested after receiving from Jesse. :|
Yes, I have a Lenovo x201s :-P.
The dmesg would have been useful to know whether the i915.ko module is loaded during X startup, and so reveal some information about the sequence of function calls (i.e. whether the modified routines were running at the time of the hang, or whether they had completed much earlier during boot). The drm.debug dmesg is usually a gold mine of information.
Attacched there is the full dmesg log.
Another useful test is whether i915.powersave=0 also prevents the hang?
No, it doesn't have any effect.
