A workaround is to change the acceleration mode to UXA in Xorg.conf. More precisely this means creating a file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf containing:

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Card0"
 Driver "Intel"
 Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
EndSection

I can now access the Chrome download page with hardware acceleration enabled (which was not possible before).

Does anyone know which kernel update caused the problem? I'd like to investigate it but first I need an idea of what changes might have caused it.
