modifications to make it work correctly on my test hardware (altered the
backlight write function, made it enable the legacy backlight controller
interrupts on mobile hardware, sorted the interrupt function so we don't
get an excessive number of vblank interrupts). This lets the backlight
keys on my T61 work properly, though there's a 750msec or so delay
between the request and the brightness actually changing - this sounds
awfully like the hardware spinning waiting for a status flag to become
ready, but as far as I can tell they're all set correctly. If anyone can
figure out what's wrong here, it'd be nice to know.
Some of the functions are still stubs and just tell the hardware that
the request was successful. These can be filled in as kernel modesetting
gets integrated. I think it's worth getting this in anyway, since it's
required for backlight control to work properly on some new platforms.

Various chips have exciting interactions between the CPU and the GPU's
different ways of accessing interleaved memory, so we need some kernel
assistance in determining how it works.
Only fully tested on GM965 so far.
The kernel has removed nopage so move the old nopage codepaths into a compat vm file and switch to using the fault paths.
nopfn is on its way out in the future also, so we should switch to using fault
for that path as well soon
It's not really a graphics memory allocator, just something to track ranges
of address space. It doesn't involve actual allocation, and was consuming
some desired namespace.
All nv30 functions in nv30_graph.c that can be used on nv20 are renamed
as accordingly. nv20 specific parts from nv20_graph.c are moved into
nv30_graph.c.
For various reasons, this ioctl was a bad idea.
At channel creation we now automatically create DMA objects covering
available VRAM and GART memory, where the client used to do this themselves.
However, there is still a need to be able to create DMA objects pointing at
specific areas of memory (ie. notifiers). Each channel is now allocated a
small amount of memory from which a client can suballocate things (such as
notifiers), and have a DMA object created which covers the suballocated area.
The NOTIFIER_ALLOC ioctl exposes this functionality.
The PGRAPH init for the various cards will need cleaning up at some point,
a lot of the values written there are per-context state left over from the
all the hardcoding done in the ddx.
It's possible some cards get broken by this commit, let me know.
Tested on: NV5, NV18, NV28, NV35, NV40, NV4E
