Hello,

after Michael implemented DRI3 I was excited to test it, but the latest git
makes my system quite unstable (even with DRI3 off).

The easiest way for me to test this is to start a game with nine. I am not sure
why but on bad xf86-video-ati-git alt-tab within the game restarts the whole
Xorg (I'm guessing it crashed and was auto-restarted).

I've bisected it, and the result is quite surprising to me but...:

af1862a37570fa512a525ab47d72b30400d2e2d6 is the first bad commit
commit af1862a37570fa512a525ab47d72b30400d2e2d6

    Always include misync.h before other misync headers

    Older versions of xserver didn't include misync.h from other misync
    headers as needed.

Before this commit I don't have stability issues.
(I've been using xf86-video-ati-git for a while and never had issues till the
batch of DRI3 patches came in).

I have a R7 280x, on Linux 4.0-rc4 and Xorg 1.17, mesa-git and llvm-svn.

Thanks!
