Ben Skeggs f56cb86f9a drm/nouveau: add instmem flush() hook
This removes the previous prepare_access() and finish_access() hooks, and
replaces it with a much simpler flush() hook.

All the chipset-specific code before nv50 has its use removed completely,
as it's not required there at all.

Ben Skeggs a76fb4e8ff drm/nouveau: detect vram amount once, and save the value
As opposed to repeatedly reading the amount back from the GPU every
time we need to know the VRAM size.

We should now fail to load gracefully on detecting no VRAM, rather than
something potentially messy happening.

Maarten Maathuis ff9e5279b1 drm/nouveau: protect channel create/destroy and irq handler with a spinlock
The nv50 pgraph handler (for example) could reenable pgraph fifo access
and that would be bad when pgraph context is being unloaded (we need the
guarantee a ctxprog isn't running).

Ben Skeggs 6ee738610f drm/nouveau: Add DRM driver for NVIDIA GPUs
This adds a drm/kms staging non-API stable driver for GPUs from NVIDIA.

This driver is a KMS-based driver and requires a compatible nouveau
userspace libdrm and nouveau X.org driver.

This driver requires firmware files not available in this kernel tree,
interested parties can find them via the nouveau project git archive.

This driver is reverse engineered, and is in no way supported by nVidia.

Support for nearly the complete range of nvidia hw from nv04->g80 (nv50)
is available, and the kms driver should support driving nearly all
output types (displayport is under development still) along with supporting
suspend/resume.

This work is all from the upstream nouveau project found at
nouveau.freedesktop.org.
