From my understanding it would make sense to go for (2), since it
would allow for proper support for CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m on PowerMac. In
this case, would such patch be accepted ?

Sounds like the right fix to me. Ben's patch above was merged, so it's supposed
to kick out offb AFAICS, the fact that it can't seems like a bug.
