I've tried to come up with a test that would hang/crash the xserver
reliably, but failed. It usually takes a number of cycles through
mirrored/extended/external-only modes, or switching between
external-only and mirrored. Anyway, the impact is that on intel+nvidia
hybrid the server can crash or hang or just fail to set the mode without
these two patches.
