This commit adds i915 driver support for the DRM mode setting APIs.
Currently, VGA, LVDS, SDVO DVI & VGA, TV and DVO LVDS outputs are
supported. HDMI, DisplayPort and additional SDVO output support will
follow.
Support for the mode setting code is controlled by the new 'modeset'
module option. A new config option, CONFIG_DRM_I915_KMS controls the
default behavior, and whether a PCI ID list is built into the module for
use by user level module utilities.
Note that if mode setting is enabled, user level drivers that access
display registers directly or that don't use the kernel graphics memory
manager will likely corrupt kernel graphics memory, disrupt output
configuration (possibly leading to hangs and/or blank displays), and
prevent panic/oops messages from appearing. So use caution when
enabling this code; be sure your user level code supports the new
interfaces.
A new SysRq key, 'g', provides emergency support for switching back to
the kernel's framebuffer console; which is useful for testing.

We're trying to keep the !CONFIG_SHMEM tiny-shmem.c (using ramfs without
swap) in synch with CONFIG_SHMEM shmem.c (and mpm is preparing patches
to combine them). I was glad to see EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(shmem_file_setup)
go into shmem.c, but why not support DRM-GEM when !CONFIG_SHMEM too?
But caution says still depend on MMU, since !CONFIG_MMU is.. different.

With the coming of kernel based modesetting and the memory manager stuff,
the everything in one directory approach was getting very ugly and
starting to be unmanageable.
This restructures the drm along the lines of other kernel components.
It creates a drivers/gpu/drm directory and moves the hw drivers into
subdirectores. It moves the includes into an include/drm, and
sets up the unifdef for the userspace headers we should be exporting.

Move AGP and DRM menus into the video graphics support menu.
They use 'menuconfig' so that they can all be disabled with
one selection.
Make the console menu use 'menuconfig' so that it can all be
disabled with one selection.
Make the frame buffer menu use 'menuconfig' so that it can all be
disabled with one selection.

The DRM code depends on an atomic version of cmpxchg(), which is not
available on sparc32. Since other platforms besides sparc32 have this
issue a KCONFIG option is added for it.

This patch adds serveral new ioctls and a new query to get_param query to
support PCI MGA cards.
Two ioctls were added to implement interrupt based waiting. With this change,
the client-side driver no longer needs to map the primary DMA region or the
MMIO region. Previously, end-of-frame waiting was done by busy waiting in the
client-side driver until one of the MMIO registers (the current DMA pointer)
matched a pointer to the end of primary DMA space. By using interrupts, the
busy waiting and the extra mappings are removed.
A third ioctl was added to bootstrap DMA. This ioctl, which is used by the
X-server, moves a *LOT* of code from the X-server into the kernel. This allows
the kernel to do whatever needs to be done to setup DMA buffers. The entire
process and the locations of the buffers are hidden from user-mode.
Additionally, a get_param query was added to differentiate between G4x0 cards
and G550 cards. A gap was left in the numbering sequence so that, if needed,
G450 cards could be distinguished from G400 cards. According to Ville
Syrjälä, the G4x0 cards and the G550 cards handle anisotropic filtering
differently. This seems the most compatible way to let the client-side driver
know which card it's own. Doing this very small change now eliminates the
need to bump the DRM minor version twice.

(airlied - this may not work at this point, I think the follow on buffer
cleanup patches will be needed)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
