So, I've tried the patch on a 3.10 kernel that was affected and... Great, it 
Works! :)
FYI, I've also added a couple of error logs in the code to see where exactly 
the failure was and this was the result:

I don't know if this may be only the side effect of another issue (wrong 
initialization order?).

One more thing I discovered in the past days, is that the kernel crash
was not happening in case that the HDMI was plugged after that ligthtdm
was running (attaching it anytime before was leading to a freeze).
