This commit breaks the userspace interface, and requires a new libdrm for
nouveau to operate again.
The multiple GEM_PUSHBUF ioctls that were present in 0.0.15 for
compatibility purposes are now gone, and replaced with the new ioctl which
allows for multiple push buffers to be submitted (necessary for hw index
buffers in the nv50 3d driver) and relocations to be applied on any buffer.
A number of other ioctls (CARD_INIT, GEM_PIN, GEM_UNPIN) that were needed
for userspace modesetting have also been removed.

PFIFO on G80 and up has a new mode where the main ring buffer is simply a
ring of pointers to indirect buffers containing the actual command/data
packets. In order to be able to implement index buffers in the 3D driver
we need to be able to submit data-only push buffers right after the cmd
packet header, which is only possible using the new command submission
method.
This commit doesn't make it possible to implement index buffers yet, some
userspace interface changes will be required, but it does allow for
testing/debugging of the hardware-side support in the meantime.

It will be useful for various synchronization purposes, mostly stolen
from "[PATCH] drm/nv50: synchronize user channel after buffer object
move on kernel channel" by Maarten Maathuis.

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.
