According to the changelog, this is fixed upstream in kernel 3.2-rc6:

Revert "drm/i915: fix infinite recursion on unbind due to ilk vt-d w/a"

This reverts commit eb1711bb94991e93669c5a1b5f84f11be2d51ea1.

It blows up the i915 seqno tracking, resulting in the

BUG_ON(seqno == 0);

in i915_wait_request() triggering, which will cause lock-ups.
