Previously, drivers supporting vblank interrupt waits would run the interrupt
all the time, or all the time that any 3d client was running, preventing the
CPU from sleeping for long when the system was otherwise idle. Now, interrupts
are disabled any time that no client is waiting on a vblank event. The new
method uses vblank counters on the chipsets when the interrupts are turned
off, rather than counting interrupts, so that we can continue to present
accurate vblank numbers.

[Patch against drm-next. Consider this a trial balloon for our new Linux
development model.]
This is a big chunk of code. Separating it out makes it easier to change
without churn on the main i915_drv.c file (and there will be churn as we
fix bugs and add things like kernel mode setting). Also makes it easier
to share this file with BSD.

This adds the support necessary for allowing ACPI backlight control to
work on some newer Intel-based graphics systems. Tested on Thinkpad T61
and HP 2510p hardware.

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.
