Imre Deak 90797e6d1e drm/i915: create compact dma scatter lists for gem objects
So far we created a sparse dma scatter list for gem objects, where each
scatter list entry represented only a single page. In the future we'll
have to handle compact scatter lists too where each entry can consist of
multiple pages, for example for objects imported through PRIME.

The previous patches have already fixed up all other places where the
i915 driver _walked_ these lists. Here we have the corresponding fix to
_create_ compact lists. It's not a performance or memory footprint
improvement, but it helps to better exercise the new logic.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
    http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
