That helped, it showed me something about drm, so...

... this was a good suggestion. Switching off DRM/Radeon gets me a
kernel that boots. However, with that config I cannot run X (which then
complains about missing kernel mode switching). If I follow
wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Xorg/Guide#Kernel_modesetting I again arrive at the
kernel settings that I previously had and which didn't work with 4.1.x.

Any more suggestions?
