Arnd Bergmann 1f692a14cb drm/i810: remove the BKL
SMP i810 systems were practically nonexistent and the configuration
was not officially supported by Intel at the time when Pentium-III
was common.

With this change, it is still possible to build a distribution kernel
that has support for SMP and includes the i810 driver without the BKL.
As a precaution, check for the theoretical SMP case at run time and
refuse to load the driver.

We also need to disable CONFIG_PREEMPT builds for this driver.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
    http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
