bd8fa19da3 Quick hack-o-rama to allow the Xorg Radeon driver to start up. It
tries to mmap memory outside of the available BARs, so allow the
range checks to be relaxed with a sysctl.

eb1c12f028 Optimize putc routine to write 2 ints instead of 8 chars to uncached
framebuffer memory. Speeds up system time of large ascii file cat
by 4x.

Inspired by:  Linux scrolling so damned fast.

b4ac36978f Mods for Xorg server:
- store assigned PCI addresses at cninit time for later mmap range
   check
 - implement set_border to scrub X remnants when switching back to VTYs
 - implement mmap, only allowing addresses within the range of the
   console adapter.

45329b8ee6 Add 32-bit framebuffer support. Tested on PearPC at lo-res, too painful
to watch at hi-res.

462ded3729 A syscons implementation using the 8-bit framebuffer set up by
OpenFirmware. Not at all optimized, but provides a PC-style
user-experience.

Tested on revA imac, B&W G3, 2k iBook, and G4 eMac.
