Ben Skeggs a1606a9596 drm/nouveau: new gem pushbuf interface, bump to 0.0.16
This commit breaks the userspace interface, and requires a new libdrm for
nouveau to operate again.

The multiple GEM_PUSHBUF ioctls that were present in 0.0.15 for
compatibility purposes are now gone, and replaced with the new ioctl which
allows for multiple push buffers to be submitted (necessary for hw index
buffers in the nv50 3d driver) and relocations to be applied on any buffer.

A number of other ioctls (CARD_INIT, GEM_PIN, GEM_UNPIN) that were needed
for userspace modesetting have also been removed.

Marcin Kościelnicki 69c9700b54 drm/nouveau: Add getparam to get available PGRAPH units.
On nv50, this will be needed by applications using CUDA to know
how much stack/local memory to allocate.

Ben Skeggs 6ee738610f drm/nouveau: Add DRM driver for NVIDIA GPUs
This adds a drm/kms staging non-API stable driver for GPUs from NVIDIA.

This driver is a KMS-based driver and requires a compatible nouveau
userspace libdrm and nouveau X.org driver.

This driver requires firmware files not available in this kernel tree,
interested parties can find them via the nouveau project git archive.

This driver is reverse engineered, and is in no way supported by nVidia.

Support for nearly the complete range of nvidia hw from nv04->g80 (nv50)
is available, and the kms driver should support driving nearly all
output types (displayport is under development still) along with supporting
suspend/resume.

This work is all from the upstream nouveau project found at
nouveau.freedesktop.org.
