Some upcoming G80 DMA changes will depend on this, but it's split out for
bisectibility just in case it causes some unexpected issues.

It will be useful for various synchronization purposes, mostly stolen
from "[PATCH] drm/nv50: synchronize user channel after buffer object
move on kernel channel" by Maarten Maathuis.
Signed-off-by: Francisco Jerez <currojerez@riseup.net>
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.
