Okay. In that case maybe try to start slow. Just boot without X and see
how that goes. If that works well try to start X.

That patch looks harmless, that should be fine.

Your hardware configuration does look that unusual. If someone reading
this could say that he is also using radeon driver, that would be nice.
If your problems rise again once you do start X then someone should try
to start debugging this. You could also wait for the next stable release
hoping that the problems goes away.
