Also imports a couple of helper functions that'll be used to implement
page flipping in the following commits..

This should prevent a number of races from occuring, the most obvious of
which will be exposed when we start making use of the "display sync" evo
channel for page flipping. The DS channel will reject any command stream
that doesn't completely agree with the current "master" state.

We need to be able to have the bh run while possibly spinning waiting for
the EVO notifier to signal. This apparently happens in some circumstances
with preempt disabled, so our workqueue was never being run.

Allows callers to install their own handlers for when a GPIO line
changes state (such as for hotplug detect).
This also fixes a bug where we weren't acknowledging the GPIO IRQ
until after the bottom half had run, causing a severe IRQ storm
in some cases.

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.
