    drm/i915: Kill legeacy AGP for gen3 kms · 3bb6ce66
    Daniel Vetter authored
    Thus far we've tried to carefully work around the fact that old
    userspace relied on the AGP-backed legacy buffer mapping ioctls for a
    bit too long. But it's really horribly, and now some new users for it
    started to show up again:

    This uses drmAgpSize to figure out the GTT size, which is both the
    wrong thing to inquire and also might force us to keep this crap
    around for another few years.
    
    So I want to stop this particular zombie from raising ever again. Now
    it's only been 4 years since XvMC was fixed for gen3, so a bit early
    by the usual rules. But since Linus explicitly said that an ABI
    breakage only counts if someone actually observes it I want to tempt
    fate an accelarate the demise of AGP.
    
    We probably need to wait 2-3 kernel releases with this shipping until
    we go on a killing spree code-wise.
    
    v2: Remove intel_agp_enabled since it's unused (Ville).
