dmesg broken 3.15-rc3 kernel

I just have a black screen with frequency out of range on the monitor with the kernel 3.15-rc3.The system boot normaly but after 3 seconds wen it should display the splash screen comme the frequency out of range on the monitor, but the boot process continue in the dark as normal and the system is responsive.
Everything work fine in 3.15-rc1 and rc2 kernels.

I'm running Kubuntu 12.04 Precise.
I have a RS880 motherboard with :

01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS880 [Radeon HD 4200].

After bisecting the first bad commit found :

But sadly reverting the patch and rebuild the kernel doesn't fix the issue.

Attached are dmesg with drm_debug=0xe for the 3.15rc3 (broken) and 3.15-rc2 
kernels, and also the bisect.log.

    drm/radeon: improve PLL limit handling in post div calculation
    
    This improves the PLL parameters when we work at
    the limits of the allowed ranges.

I just revert the commit, rebuild and is working fine again now.

Sorry for my first report.
