radeon boot "hot-crash"

[Michael Buesch]

Hi,

I'm wondering how we are finally going to fix my radeon
"hot-crash" issue.
Fact is, applying the patch below fixes the issue.
Though, I see that this is not the correct patch to fix it.
Other devices might need the register write which is removed here.
So what about the following:
We add a specialcase for the exact type (and revision and so on)
for my chip here.
How do  find out what's my chiprevision?
What exactly should be checked for here, so that only this chip
is affected by the workaround?
