Francisco Jerez 8c032ce73e drm/nouveau: Use the software object for fencing.
This should avoid a race condition on nv0x, if we're doing it with
actual PGRAPH objects and a there's a fence within the FIFO DMA fetch
area when a context switch kicks in.

In that case we get an ILLEGAL_MTHD interrupt as expected, but the
values in PGRAPH_TRAPPED_ADDR aren't calculated correctly and they're
almost useless (e.g. you can see ILLEGAL_MTHDs for the now inactive
channel, with a wrong offset/data pair).

Ben Skeggs 6ee738610f drm/nouveau: Add DRM driver for NVIDIA GPUs
This adds a drm/kms staging non-API stable driver for GPUs from NVIDIA.

This driver is a KMS-based driver and requires a compatible nouveau
userspace libdrm and nouveau X.org driver.

This driver requires firmware files not available in this kernel tree,
interested parties can find them via the nouveau project git archive.

This driver is reverse engineered, and is in no way supported by nVidia.

Support for nearly the complete range of nvidia hw from nv04->g80 (nv50)
is available, and the kms driver should support driving nearly all
output types (displayport is under development still) along with supporting
suspend/resume.

This work is all from the upstream nouveau project found at
nouveau.freedesktop.org.
