Can you try to reproduce with the latest drm-tip? Here are the instructions if you need them: http://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/build-guide-0

Also, please enable debug logs with drm.debug=0x1e and log_buf_len=1M and attach a full dmesg output from boot.

Thanks!

It jumped to a NULL vfunc from intel_modeset_setup_hw_state+0x385/0xf60 from a ACPI lid notifier. I guess we received an event before we finished setting up the internals, are we registering the notifier too early?

No point trying drm-tip then as Chris already sent a patch to fix this.

    drm/i915/lvds: Move acpi lid notification registration to registration phase
    
    Delay registering ourselves with the acpi lid notification mechanism
    until we are registering the connectors after initialisation is
    complete. This prevents a possibility of trying to handle the lid
    notification before we are ready with the danger of chasing
    uninitialised function pointers.
