yeah, you'd probably not hit that warning with the x86/gart bisection
sequence. (Assuming the bug is introduced in that branch - so you should
first check whether pure x86/gart kernel triggers the problem too.)

If you still have the commit ID around then please send it - if you
dont, no problem, it's no big issue. I wanted to check how wide the
bisection window is where the warning triggers.
