Intel 855 chips present the same pci id for both heads. This prevents
us from attaching to the dummy second head. All other chips that I
am aware of either only present a single pci id, or different ids
for each head so that we only match on the correct head.
The commit 957b10695b, "Move vblank_init
to driver load time." forgot to add the function declaration in
linux-core/drmP.h.

This helps avoid the n^2 performance cost of counting tree size when we
get a lot of relocations into our batch buffer. rgb10text on keithp's laptop
went from 136k glyphs/sec to 234k glyphs/sec.
This avoids using the oldest BO in the BO cache and waiting for it to be
idle before we turn around and render to it with the GPU. Thanks to
Chris Wilson for pointing out how silly we were being.
Loading nouveau.ko would fail with unknown symbols, if the backlight
class device support is not provided in the kernel. Let's make the
backlight support dependant on the kernel configuration.
This is a bit ugly, the proper way would be to check for the config in
Makefile.kernel whether to build nouveau_backlight.o at all, and if not,
nouveau_drv.h should provide the stubs.

Several nvidia-based systems don't support backlight control via the
standard ACPI control mechanisms. Instead, it's necessary for the driver
to modify the backlight control registers directly. This patch adds
support for determining whether the registers appear to be in use, and
if so registers a kernel backlight device to control them. The backlight
can then be controlled via existing userspace tools.

This function is unused, and yet creates build problems: the symbol
init_mm is not exported by the latest -rc kernels and I don't believe it
ever will be. Even CONFIG_UNUSED_SYMBOLS does not provide it anymore.
If this function is needed in the future, it needs to be reinvented in
any case. So remove it.

Intel developers have stated, that their DRM development continues
elsewhere in some Linux kernel trees. This makes the code in drm.git
just dead weight. This removal allows further cleanup of compatibility
code.
shared-core and bsd-core are left untouched this time.
