drm_ioctl is called with the Big Kernel Lock held,
which shows up very high in statistics on vfs_ioctl.
Moving the lock into the drm_ioctl function itself
makes sure we blame the right subsystem and it gets
us one step closer to eliminating the locked version
of fops->ioctl.
Since drm_ioctl does not require the lock itself,
we only need to hold it while calling the specific
handler. The 32 bit conversion handlers do not
interact with any other code, so they don't need
the BKL here either and can just call drm_ioctl.
As a bonus, this cleans up all the other users
of drm_ioctl which now no longer have to find
the inode or call lock_kernel.
[airlied: squashed the non-driver bits
of the second patch in here, this provides
the flag for drivers to use to select unlocked
ioctls - but doesn't modify any drivers].

It hasn't been used in ages, and having the user tell your how much
memory is being freed at free time is a recipe for disaster even if it
was ever used.

Once upon a time, the DRM made the distinction between the drm_map
data structure exchanged with user space and the drm_local_map used
in the kernel.
For some reasons, while the BSD port still has that "feature", the
linux part abused drm_map for kernel internal usage as the local
map only existed as a typedef of the struct drm_map.
This patch fixes it by declaring struct drm_local_map separately
(though its content is currently identical to the userspace variant),
and changing the kernel code to only use that, except when it's a
user<->kernel interface (ie. ioctl).
This allows subsequent changes to the in-kernel format
I've also replaced the use of drm_local_map_t with struct drm_local_map
in a couple of places. Mostly by accident but they are the same (the
former is a typedef of the later) and I have some remote plans and
half finished patch to completely kill the drm_local_map_t typedef
so I left those bits in.

With the coming of kernel based modesetting and the memory manager stuff,
the everything in one directory approach was getting very ugly and
starting to be unmanageable.
This restructures the drm along the lines of other kernel components.
It creates a drivers/gpu/drm directory and moves the hw drivers into
subdirectores. It moves the includes into an include/drm, and
sets up the unifdef for the userspace headers we should be exporting.
