With debugpat enabled, the resulting dump that landed in
/var/log/messages was something like 1.6 megabytes, so it totally
overflowed the dmesg buffer.

I've created a Bugzilla attachment of the bzip'ed messages excerpt here:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=16174&action=view

The patch above was only available in HTML-only mode (and I couldn't
find Ingo's patch on lkml.org, so I had to reconstruct it, and then
forward part it to 2.6.26-rc2-git5).  What I actually used can be
found here:

I'm not sure this will be helpful for you, but this should be
completely trivial for you to reproduce; just use Ubuntu Gutsy on
Intel Video based laptop, with a 2.6.26-rc2-git4 or more recent
kernel, and watch it fail.  

For me, I'll just locally revert commit 1c12c4cf since otherwise X
becomes more-or-less unsuable.  (Getting used to 1024x768 after using
a 1600x1200 display is one thing; 800x600 is quite another, and the
performance using the VESA driver is quite abysmal.)
