I don't think I tested on earlier Ubuntu versions, but I just booted debian-10 (installed from current i386 packages) to make a quick test on earlier kernel (4.19.0-11-686) and display is not breaking (but accelerated according to logs).
Some interesting bits in log:

Local files are not working better.
I saw you tagged it regression as regression but since I have this system I don't think I saw this working properly.
I know it also affected Ubuntu 20.04 after I upgraded from 19.10 as stated at:

I can stop and run it again without lockups.
To bisect I can try older Ubuntu bionic.
