Hi,

Attached is a patch which force the use of the scratch page
for all AGP bridges, only tested on SIS or Intel bridges,
i am bit skeptical for alpha bridges. If you prefer i can
just force this for x86 & PPC bridge for which we can easily
get tester.

Cheers,
Jerome

AFAICT this just removes the needs_scratch_page flag but doesn't bind

This won't work for pre-U3 bridges, as bound table entries are marked by
setting bit 0. (Maybe the driver just shouldn't use
agp_generic_mask_memory?)
