Ok, attached is a really simple client that will allocate 32MB of
scatter-gather memory and map a 1MB ring buffer out of that.  The
"contents" values should always be 0.  Build the client with:

gcc -O2 -pipe -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/drm
-L/usr/local/lib -ldrm -o drm-test drm-test.c

To perform the test, you will need to boot up in console. (No X)
Manually kldload the radeon driver and then as root execute drm-test.
