Constify struct sysfs_ops.
This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.
Benefits of this constification:
* prevents modification of data that is shared
(referenced) by many other structure instances
at runtime
* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
modification attempts on archs that enforce
read-only kernel data at runtime
* potentially better optimized code as the compiler
can assume that the const data cannot be changed
* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
and therefore exclude them from false sharing

Resending this with Thomas Hellstrom's signoff for merging into 2.6.33
ttm_bo_delayed_delete has a race condition, because after we do:
kref_put(&nentry->list_kref, ttm_bo_release_list);
we are not holding the list lock and not holding any reference to
objects, and thus every bo in the list can be removed and freed at
this point.
However, we then use the next pointer we stored, which is not guaranteed
to be valid.
This was apparently the cause of some Nouveau oopses I experienced.
This patch rewrites the function so that it keeps the reference to nentry
until nentry itself is freed and we already got a reference to nentry->next.
v2 updated by me according to Thomas Hellstrom's feedback.
v3 proposed by Thomas Hellstrom. Commit comment updated by me.
Both updates fixed minor efficiency/style issues only and all three versions

This change allow driver to pass sorted memory placement,
from most prefered placement to least prefered placement.
In order to avoid long function prototype a structure is
used to gather memory placement informations such as range
restriction (if you need a buffer to be in given range).
Range restriction is determined by fpfn & lpfn which are
the first page and last page number btw which allocation
can happen. If those fields are set to 0 ttm will assume
buffer can be put anywhere in the address space (thus it
avoids putting a burden on the driver to always properly
set those fields).
This patch also factor few functions like evicting first
entry of lru list or getting a memory space. This avoid
code duplication.
V2: Change API to use placement flags and array instead
of packing placement order into a quadword.
V3: Make sure we set the appropriate mem.placement flag
when validating or allocation memory space.

When we are evicting from VRAM->RAM we allocate the ttm object,
but we don't set the caching policy on it before blitting into it.
This means on AGP we end up blitting into cached pages, and
the CPU later flushes out on top of them. This was mostly seen as
font corruption.
The other question is why we don't evict VRAM->GTT in a lot of cases,
this would save us some cache transitions since a lot of objects
that are evicted from VRAM will probably end up being pulled back in
a few operations later, and evicting them to system memory involves
2 unnecessary cache transitions.

TTM is a GPU memory manager subsystem designed for use with GPU
devices with various memory types (On-card VRAM, AGP,
PCI apertures etc.). It's essentially a helper library that assists
the DRM driver in creating and managing persistent buffer objects.
TTM manages placement of data and CPU map setup and teardown on
data movement. It can also optionally manage synchronization of
data on a per-buffer-object level.
TTM takes care to provide an always valid virtual user-space address
to a buffer object which makes user-space sub-allocation of
big buffer objects feasible.
TTM uses a fine-grained per buffer-object locking scheme, taking
care to release all relevant locks when waiting for the GPU.
Although this implies some locking overhead, it's probably a big
win for devices with multiple command submission mechanisms, since
the lock contention will be minimal.
TTM can be used with whatever user-space interface the driver
chooses, including GEM. It's used by the upcoming Radeon KMS DRM driver
and is also the GPU memory management core of various new experimental
DRM drivers.
