Oh, wow!
patch in attachment 89886 seems to fix this issue for me.

Today is thanksgiving here in the USA.
I am thankful for open source radeon drivers.
I am thankful for your efforts, Alex Deucher.

This would confirm that it is a bogus BIOS setting where the bios reports
384, but it is actually only 256.
I tried something similar on my own earlier, but I did not understand the
memory layout well enough to know to adjust the base address.
Thank you for trying yet again to fix this, Alex.
I am testing now. Anyone else on this bug able to test this proposed fix?
