vga_switcheroo: initial implementation (v15)
Many new laptops now come with 2 gpus, one to be used for low power
modes and one for gaming/on-ac applications. These GPUs are typically
wired to the laptop panel and VGA ports via a multiplexer unit which
is controlled via ACPI methods.
4 combinations of systems typically exist - with 2 ACPI methods.
Intel/ATI - Lenovo W500/T500 - use ATPX ACPI method
ATI/ATI - some ASUS - use ATPX ACPI Method
Intel/Nvidia - - use _DSM ACPI method
Nvidia/Nvidia - - use _DSM ACPI method.
TODO:
This patch adds support for the ATPX method and initial bits
for the _DSM methods that need to written by someone with
access to the hardware.
Add a proper non-debugfs interface - need to get some proper
testing first.
v2: add power up/down support for both devices

v3: redo probing methods, no DMI list, drm devices call to
register with switcheroo, it tries to find an ATPX method on
any device and once there is two devices + ATPX it inits the
switcher.
v4: ATPX msg handling using buffers - should work on more machines
v5: rearchitect after more mjg59 discussion - move ATPX handling to
radeon driver.
v6: add file headers + initial nouveau bits (to be filled out).
v7: merge delayed switcher code.
v8: avoid suspend/resume of gpu that is off
v9: rearchitect - mjg59 is always right. - move all ATPX code to

drm/radeon: r100/r200 ums: block ability for userspace app to trash 0 page and beyond
radeon's have a special ability to passthrough writes in their internal
memory space directly to PCI, this ability means that if some of the internal
surfaces like the depth buffer point at 0x0, any writes to these will
go directly to RAM at 0x0 via PCI busmastering.
Now mesa used to always emit clears after emitting state, since the
radeon mesa driver was refactored a year or more ago, it was found it
could generate a clear request without ever sending any setup state to the
card. So the clear would attempt to clear the depth buffer at 0x0, which
would overwrite main memory at this point. fs corruption ensues.
Also once one app did this correctly, it would never get set back to 0
making this messy to reproduce.
The kernel should block this from happening as mesa runs without privs,
though it does require the user be connected to the current running X session.
This patch implements a check to make sure the depth offset has been set
before a depth clear occurs and if it finds one it prints a warning and
ignores the depth clear request. There is also a mesa fix to avoid sending
the badness going into mesa.
This only affects r100/r200 GPUs in user modesetting mode.

percentage of errors (I set the fault injection rate to 10% and could still
download large files at a reasonable speed).

"Benjamin S." <sbenni@gmx.de> reports that the patch in question
causes a big drop in sequential throughput for him, dropping from
200MB/sec down to only 70MB/sec.
Needs to be investigated more fully, for now lets just revert the
offending commit.
