This is a snapshot of git master as of a few days ago...  git master is
no longer useable after this point, at least not for intel.  I hope to
eventually get gem working, (shameless plea for help) but it may take
some time.  Given that we haven't had a real update to drm in a couple
of years, I wanted to get this in the tree.  There are a few patches
present in this changeset beyond what was in git master.

As I stated earlier, the future of drm.git is in question right now, so
I'm not sure what the best way to move forward is yet.  I would like to
go ahead and get in the features and fixes that we have now, rather than
stall out and wait until we have the next feature... We will wait
forever on some feature or the other.

What I'm aiming to do with this changeset, is identify any outstanding
bugs/regressions and get us a little more current than we are today.  I
have a lot of work that I would like to do outside of trying to keep up
with the new features coming out, but time is limited...
