    Memory layout transition:
    
    * the 2D driver initializes MC_FB_LOCATION and related registers sanely
    * the DRM deduces the layout from these registers
    * clients use the new SETPARAM ioctl to tell the DRM where they think the
    framebuffer is located in the card's address space
    * the DRM uses all this information to check client state and fix it up if
    necessary
    
    This is a prerequisite for things like direct rendering with IGP chips and
    video capturing.
