In the conversion for GEM, we had stopped using the hardware lock to protect
ring usage, since it was all internal to the DRM now. However, some paths
weren't converted to using struct_mutex to prevent multiple threads from
concurrently working on the ring, in particular between the vblank swap handler
and ioctls.

GEM allows the creation of persistent buffer objects accessible by the
graphics device through new ioctls for managing execution of commands on the
device. The userland API is almost entirely driver-specific to ensure that
any driver building on this model can easily map the interface to individual
driver requirements.
GEM is used by the 2d driver for managing its internal state allocations and
will be used for pixmap storage to reduce memory consumption and enable
zero-copy GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, and in the 3d driver is used to enable
GL_EXT_framebuffer_object and GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object.

Previously, drivers supporting vblank interrupt waits would run the interrupt
all the time, or all the time that any 3d client was running, preventing the
CPU from sleeping for long when the system was otherwise idle. Now, interrupts
are disabled any time that no client is waiting on a vblank event. The new
method uses vblank counters on the chipsets when the interrupts are turned
off, rather than counting interrupts, so that we can continue to present
accurate vblank numbers.

[Patch against drm-next. Consider this a trial balloon for our new Linux
development model.]
This is a big chunk of code. Separating it out makes it easier to change
without churn on the main i915_drv.c file (and there will be churn as we
fix bugs and add things like kernel mode setting). Also makes it easier
to share this file with BSD.

This adds the support necessary for allowing ACPI backlight control to
work on some newer Intel-based graphics systems. Tested on Thinkpad T61
and HP 2510p hardware.

Previous attempts at interrupt mitigation had been foiled by i915_wait_irq's
failure to update the sarea seqno value when the status page indicated that
the seqno had already been passed. MSI support has been seen to cut CPU
costs by up to 40% in some workloads by avoiding other expensive interrupt
handlers for frequent graphics interrupts.

The driver can know what hardware requires MI_BATCH_BUFFER vs
MI_BATCH_BUFFER_START; there's no reason to let user mode configure this.

With the coming of kernel based modesetting and the memory manager stuff,
the everything in one directory approach was getting very ugly and
starting to be unmanageable.
This restructures the drm along the lines of other kernel components.
It creates a drivers/gpu/drm directory and moves the hw drivers into
subdirectores. It moves the includes into an include/drm, and
sets up the unifdef for the userspace headers we should be exporting.
