This will come in very handy for tiled buffers on intel hardware.
Also add some padding to interface structures to allow future binary backwards
compatible changes.
This makes an allocated block actually align itself and returns any
wasted space to the manager.
Also add some functions to grow and shrink the managed area.
This will be used in the future to manage the buffer object swap cache.
otherwise data will be missing, which becomes apparent when the kernel evicts
batch buffers which are likely to be written into in the evicted state,
and then rebound to the AGP aperture.
This means we cannot rely on the AGP module to flush the
cache for us.
driver we're on.
Avoid global cache flushes before inserting pages.
In general, they are never mapped, and not accessed through the kernel map, so
a cache flush should not be necessary. The exception is pages that are bound
cached. We might need a cache flush for those.
The mm_lock function is used when leaving vt. It evicts _all_ buffers.
Buffers with the DRM_BO_NO_MOVE attribute set will be guaranteed to
get the same offset when / if they are rebound.
Fix buffer bound caching policy changing, Allow
on-the-fly changing of caching policy on bound buffers if the hardware
supports it.
Allow drivers to use driver-specific AGP memory types for TTM AGP pages.
Will make AGP drivers much easier to migrate.
Adapt for new functions in the 2.6.19 kernel.
Remove the ability to have multiple regions in one TTM.
This simplifies a lot of code.
Remove the ability to access TTMs from user space.
We don't need it anymore without ttm regions.
Don't change caching policy for evicted buffers. Instead change it only
when the buffer is accessed by the CPU (on the first page fault).
This tremendously speeds up eviction rates.
Current code is safe for kernels <= 2.6.14.
Should also be OK with 2.6.19 and above.
Initialize the spinlock unconditionally when struct drm_device is filled in,
and return early in drm_locked_tasklet() if the driver doesn't support IRQs.
It looks like this would have caused signals to always get sent on the next
vertical blank, regardless of the sequence number.
(cherry picked from cf6b2c5299 commit)
When this flag is set and the target sequence is missed, wait for the next
vertical blank instead of returning immediately.

This makes it easier for userspace to know when it needs to allocate an ID.
Also free drawable information memory when it's no longer needed.
