Public bug reported:

The Mesa project requires a kernel change to support OpenGL 3.0
on Intel's gen7 (Ivy Bridge) hardware.
To reproduce the issue, run:
$ glxinfo| grep "OpenGL version"

This result is the failing case:
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 8.0.2

This result is the successful case:
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 8.0.2

To resolve the issue, the kernel commit
ae662d31264979e52581bd2573bf0b82812f52ab
"drm/i915: Add support for resetting the SO write pointers on gen7."
should be cherry-picked.
(This commit is available in the kernel mainline.)

I have tested this with
git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git
The commit cherry picks cleanly, and resolves the issue.
