6730c3c144 Fix AGP compile on non-x86 architectures
AGP shouldn't use "global_flush_tlb()" to flush the AGP mappings, that i
spurely an x86'ism.  The proper AGP mapping flusher that should be used
is "flush_agp_mappings()", which on x86 obviously happens to do a global
TLB flush.

This makes AGP (or at least the config _I_ happen to use) compile again
on ppc64.

88d51967f5 [PATCH] AGP performance fixes
AGP allocation/deallocation is suffering major performance issues due to
the nature of global_flush_tlb() being called on every change_page_attr()
call.

For small allocations this isn't really seen, but when you start allocating
50000 pages of AGP space, for say, texture memory, then things can take
seconds to complete.

In some cases the situation is doubled or even quadrupled in the time due
to SMP, or a deallocation, then a new reallocation.  I've had a case of
upto 20 seconds wait time to deallocate and reallocate AGP space.

This patch fixes the problem by making it the caller's responsibility to
call global_flush_tlb(), and so removes it from every instance of mapping a
page into AGP space until the time that all change_page_attr() changes are
done.

46acac3b4f [AGPGART] Drop duplicate setting of info->mode in agp_copy_info()
Spotted by Jeremy Fitzhardinge, this change crept in with the multiple
backend support.  It's clearly incorrect to overwrite info->mode after
we just went to lengths to determine which bits to mask out.

66bb8bf8b2 [PATCH] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0).
[AGPGART] Replace check_bridge_mode() with (bridge->mode & AGSTAT_MODE_3_0).

As mentioned earlier, the current check_bridge_mode() code assumes
that AGP bridges are PCI devices.  This isn't always true.  Definitely
not for HP zx1 chipset and the same seems to be the case for SGI's AGP
bridge.

The patch below fixes the problem by picking up the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit
from bridge->mode.  I feel like I may be missing something, since I
can't see any reason why check_bridge_mode() wasn't doing that in the
first place.  According to the AGP 3.0 specs, the AGP_MODE_3_0 bit is
determined during the hardware reset and cannot be changed, so it
seems to me it should be safe to pick it up from bridge->mode.

With the patch applied, I can definitely use AGP acceleration both
with AGP 2.0 and AGP 3.0 (one with an Nvidia card, the other with an
ATI FireGL card).

Unless someone spots a problem, please apply this patch so 3d
acceleration can work on zx1 boxes again.

This makes AGP work again on machines with an AGP bridge that isn't a
PCI device.

07eee78ea8 [PATCH] AGP fix for Xen VMM
When Linux is running on the Xen virtual machine monitor, physical
addresses are virtualised and cannot be directly referenced by the AGP
GART.  This patch fixes the GART driver for Xen by adding a layer of
abstraction between physical addresses and 'GART addresses'.

Architecture-specific functions are also defined for allocating and freeing
the GATT.  Xen requires this to ensure that table really is contiguous from
the point of view of the GART.

These extra interface functions are defined as 'no-ops' for all existing
architectures that use the GART driver.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
