Greg, here we go:

Well, I'm not so good in git bisect - I just compared the 3.12.3 patch 
against 3.12.4 but didn't find anything.
In the attached tarball you find the source files and scripts I used. In 
the log-files you find the outcome when building it with 3.12.3.
Hope this helps. Odd is that I was able to compile those drivers for so 
long until now. Everything else, like nvidia still works.

I'm glad that I might find a regression due this.

kind regards

Phil
