Screen 0 freezes and screen 1 not working post-update (xf86-video-ati)

Hello.
Yesterday's xf86-video-ati (iirc) update made my two-monitor configuration go completely mad.
I'm using a Radeon HD 7770 and integrated graphics (HD 3000) together thanks to SurroundView.
Since yesterday the monitor that was connected to the HD 3000 (VGA-1-0) has stopped working at all (xrandr stopped detecting the second provider)
and the monitor connected to the HD 7770 (DVI-0) freezes every ~10 seconds for about 4 seconds which makes the PC almost unusable.
What's even more strange is that even though it "freezes" I can still move my mouse freely. The cursor also changes when aiming at f.e. a text box, yet everything under it is completely frozen.
lspci output shows that both GPUs are indeed detected correctly with the 7770 being at 2:0:0 and the integrated GPU being at 1:5:0.

Here's my xorg.conf and lspci and xrandr outputs.
EDIT: Also yesterday's pacman log.

Same issue here with intel discrete ad nVIDIA.
After last upgrade I can see only one card with xrandr.
I can't run gnome anymore because I can't redirect nVIDIA output.
