This does several things.
- It moves looking up of the current foreground console into process
context where we can safely take the semaphore that protects this
operation.
- It uses the new flavor of work queue processing.
- This generates a factor of do_SAK, __do_SAK that runs immediately.
- This calls __do_SAK with the console semaphore held ensuring nothing
else happens to the console while we process the SAK operation.
- With the console SAK processing moved into process context this
patch removes the xchg operations that I used to attempt to attomically
update struct pid, because of the strange locking used in the SAK processing.
With SAK using the normal console semaphore nothing special is needed.

The PCWD cards normally use the heartbeat that is set via
the dip-switches of the card. There are only 3 switches,
thus 8 combinations that each have a certain heartbeat.
The card can however be programmed with a heartbeat from
1 till 65535 seconds. This is what our driver does: it
programs the heartbeat on the card.
There are however a lot of people that don't know that
we set the heartbeat of the watchdog card to the value
provided by the heartbeat module parameter. Instead they
think that the heartbeat value is the same as set by the
dip-switches.
This patch changes the driver so that at startup you can
take the heartbeat from the dip-switches. You do this
by setting the heartbeat module parameter to 0. This
patch also makes this the default behaviour.

On the G965, the GTT size may be larger than is required to cover the
aperture. (In fact, on all hardware we've seen, the GTT is 512KB to the
aperture's 256MB). A previous commit forced the aperture size to 512MB on
G965 to match GTT, which would likely result in hangs at best if users
tried to rely on agpgart's aperture size information. Instead, we use the
resource length for the aperture size and the system's reported GTT size
when available for the GTT size.
Because the MSAC registers which had been read for aperture size detection
on i9xx chips just cause a change in the resource size, we can use generic
code for aperture detection on all i9xx.

This patch is to speed up flipping of pages in and out of the AGP aperture as
needed by the new drm memory manager.
A number of global cache flushes are removed as well as some PCI posting flushes.
The following guidelines have been used:
1) Memory that is only mapped uncached and that has been subject to a global
cache flush after the mapping was changed to uncached does not need any more
cache flushes. Neither before binding to the aperture nor after unbinding.
2) Only do one PCI posting flush after a sequence of writes modifying page
entries in the GATT.
