The mesa package already has a fix for this staged in git for jessie, not released yet.

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-xorg/lib/mesa.git/commit/?h=debian-jessie&id=6d8a4971d16ddaa5429dc9e3a26b603e08738d8a

This bug should nevertheless remain open against the kernel and track the progress of the patches at:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2015-January/074967.html

Note the comment in the upstream fix in mesa, saying that it is a temporary fix disabling some functionality until the kernel is properly fixed.

I was trying to build a local kernel with these patches applied and ran into some difficulty. Will get back to it later.
