Which kernel were you patching? 3.13-rc2 or 3.12.2?

It's odd that it would reboot half the time. The patch from comment #16 should have been the same as reverting the original commit, at least for your system.

Hmm. Perhaps there's another patch that's causing the reboots? If you're testing with 3.13, can you try an unpatched 3.12.3? Try to shutdown as soon as you log into GDM. Then try 3.12.3 with the patch from comment #16.

Notes on Niklas' bug report:
 - 3.11 works
 - 3.13-rc2 fails
 - hasn't done a git bisect to identify the problematic commit
