I was looking for our kernel DRM error ("radeon: ring 0 test failed (scratch(0x8504)=0xCAFEDEAD)") on Google, and it seems that we are not the only ones having such an error.
See this guy with a Freescale P1022 CPU and a RadeonHD:

Interesting motherboard by the way:
P1022, Version: 1.1
2 core e500v2 1.2GHz revision 5.1
4 GB DDR3 RAM
PCIe x4 with x16 connector
U-Boot 2014.04-00124-g2c02fcb (Sep 20 2014 - 11:36:22)
OS: Debian 7.7 PowerPC and Debian 8.0 PowerPCSPE
Kernel 3.8.13-rt9 (config as attachment)
Radeon HD5450 1GB DDR3 VRAM

Yeah.

I bought a second hand P1022 board, last year. I have the same problem with the Radeon HD card like you.
Thank you for your work!

@Xeno74
Just tried a Kernel 3.0.1 and the same problem exists since at least that version (2011).

Checked. Works fine, but did not notice any difference from the last kernel 3.19 with firmware included.

Mainly Just some adjustments to unused built in drivers. Trying to free up some space.

New Kernel 3.19.1 at the same link as the last post.
This one now loads the radeon microcode for the Radeon HD7750 properly.
Stil no working HDMI audio with the Radeon 7750 thought.
will have to make a new installer so some one with a Radeon HD 7750 is able to install a Linux distribution without swapping video cards.
