That was actually my change and the way it's done, it doesn't break any ABIs
and is pretty harmless as a small, incremental change.

Right now, Eric, Dave Airlied and I are working on getting ttm into the DDX
driver and updating the X server / DRI driver interfaces to pass buffer object
handles back and forth.  At this point, the code that Dave and I are working
with is mostly a prototype to see how ttm holds up in this use case and to
figure out what kind of interfaces we need.  The code is in our personal
xserver, xf86-video-intel, mesa and drm trees, but it is mainly just a vehicle
for understanding how things work.  I think Eric is working towards a more
production ready implementation, but I'm not sure how far along he is.

I'm hoping to have something working soon, and then I'll try to write up the
changes in drm and dri driver interfaces and send out an email.  This mainly
why the dri interface changes I've been working on have stalled - I wanted to
make the new interface ttm proof.
