I can confirm this patch does fix the backtrace.
I disabled lockdep, and now I can get to X each boot, but I still see
a black screen rather than a console between modesetting becoming active, and X starting.

(The lockdep thing turned out to be a known XFS false positive, but for
some reason it actually caused X to lock up)

I don't know if it's relevant, but this laptop (and I suspect many other
thinkpads which seem affected) have dual gfx, both show up on the bus,
even if though the nvidia isn't in use..

Just as X starts up, I see this in dmesg..
