Problem Description: On switching from KDE-4 with desktop effects enabled to
'text' console and back leave X hung with top, approximately 1/3, of screen
corrupted, keyboard and mouse are unresponsive. SAK K returns to kdm login
screen. If desktop effects are not enabled, all works OK. 

I have bisected the problem and the commit which introduces it is
7c1c2871a6a3a114853ec6836e9035ac1c0c7f7a drm: move to kref per-master
structures.

Steps to reproduce:Configure kernel for radeonfb, 
Start KDE with desktop effects enabled
Switch to 'text' console and back to X
Top, approximately 1/3, of screen is corrupted, keyboard and mouse are
unresponsive. SAK K returns to kdm login screen.
