This (welcome) rewrite will likely be merged in 2.6.37 (but I can't
speak for Chris).
This is a port of this patch:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel.git;a=commit;h=e5e408fc94595...
, but on completely different code.
Also this patch is new and didn't see much testing (I tested on 4
different Intel GPUs, belonging only to 2 different families); if it's
not merged for 2.6.36, it won't be for 2.6.37 (the new code will land
first). If that happens, it might not meet conditions to be accepted
in -stable (being in linus' tree first).
