Oh BTW something else to be careful with, though I suppose it's working
some what by accident right now... when the GART is in the frame buffer
it gets applied the current fb swapper setting... ouch !

So it might be a good idea, if we're going to use DRM_READ/WRITE32 which
afaik are readl/writel (ie, swapping) to make sure we at least
temporarily disable that swapper while whacking the GART.

I know David (Airlied) kms stuff sorts that out by having a fixed
surface covering that area but definitely worth keeping in mind.

Cheers,
Ben.
