This is an initial import of the atom bios parser with modesetting support
for r500 hw using atombios. It also includes a simple memory manager
layer that translates a radeon GEM style interface onto TTM internally.
So far this memory manager has only been used for pinned object allocation
for the DDX to test modesetting.
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.
- There is one fb, used for as many outputs as possible.
- Eventually smaller screens will be scaled to see the full console, but for the moment this'll do.
This splits a lot of the core modesetting code out into a file of
helper functions, that are only called from themselves and/or the driver.
The driver gets called into more often or can call these functions from itself
if it is a helper using driver.
I've broken framebuffer resize doing this but I didn't like the API for that
in any case.
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.
This should work on all radeon but there is still many things todo:
- add crtc2
- tmds
- lvds
- add bios data table so we don't need to hardcode dac/crtc infos
- separate clock control to make power saving easier & cleaner
- tiling (warning tiling shouldn't be enable in double scan or interlace)
- surface reg manager (this goes along with tiling)
- suspend/resume hook
- avivo & r500 family support
- atom bios support (for posting card mostly)
- finish superioctl skeleton
- what else ? :)

Fixup suspend/resume conflicts (basically use what's in DRM master for now).
Also fix up a few other conflicts that snuck in (i915_dma changes etc.).
