No problem, "previously" was quite some time ago...
 It sure looks like the r128 case 
is almost exactly the same as the one you fixed in the radeon driver, in fact 
your patch almost applies but for the small amount of radeon specific context 
in it.  i810 actually looks like it has the memset #if 0'd out, so is 
probably safe.

Ah right, in i810 it's commented out.
 And mga again looks nearly identical to the radeon case.  Why 
don't we fix them all up at once?

Ok, I will attach another patch to the bug.

Please refer to this message from Jesse Barnes to know why this is bad :

Here is a patch that fixes this by changing the memset into a for() loop
doing memory access one byte at a time :
http://icps.u-strasbg.fr/~marchesin/dri/ia64_solo_memset.patch
Is it just radeon that suffers from this problem?  How about r128 or the other 
drivers?  (I don't have the tree in front of me just now or I'd do a quick 
audit.)

Yes, other drivers suffer from that too (at least r128, i810 and mga as 
far as I can see). However, as I said previously I don't understand them 
enough to touch them.
