This patchset add a new infrastructure to deal with memory mapping,
with the new interface the driver is responsible for providing io
address at which a buffer is accessible. This would be usefull for
separate aperture configuration but also for future hw which likely
have more advanced feature when it comes to aperture handling.

This patchset absolutely need the TTM fixes Thomas posted couple
weeks ago (thread name last minute range validation fixes) this is
at least needed for radeon unmappable patch otherwise you will get
Xorg faulting all over. This patchset have received limited testing
on radeon (the unmappable bo move seems to work properly, no corruption)
and have just been compile tested on nouveau and vmwgfx.

I wish this to get them included in 2.6.34, comment & review are welcome

Cheers,
Jerome
