This update brings few features:
o Support for the setmaster/dropmaster ioctls. For instance, they
are used to run multiple X servers simultaneously.
o Support for minor devices. The only user-visible change is a new
entry in /dev/dri but it is useless at the moment. This is a
first step to support render nodes [1].
The main benefit is to greatly reduce the diff with Linux (at the
expense of an unreadable commit diff). Hopefully, next upgrades will be
easier.
No updates were made to the drivers, beside adapting them to API
changes.

this option from all modules that enable it theirselves.
In C mode -fms-extensions option enables anonymous structs and unions,
allowing us to use this C11 feature in kernel. Of course, clang supports
it without any extra options.

This allows to run 32bit applications on a 64bit host. This was tested
successfully with Wine (emulators/i386-wine-devel) and StarCraft II.

variable, defined in kern.pre.mk, which can be used to easily supply the
flag (or not), depending on the compiler type.

not do. For clang 3.4 however, -fms-extensions enables the Microsoft
__wchar_t type, which clashes with our own types.h.

This driver is based on Linux 3.8 and a previous effort by kan@.
More informations about this project can be found on the FreeBSD wiki:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/AMD_GPU
The driver is split into:
sys/dev/drm2:
The driver sources.
sys/modules/drm2/radeonkmw:
The driver main kernel module's Makefile.
sys/modules/drm2/radeonkmsfw:
All firmware kernel module Makefiles. There's one directory and one
Makefile for each firmware.
sys/contrib/dev/drm2/radeonkmsfw:
All firmware binary sources.
tools/tools/drm/radeon
Tools to update firmwares or regenerate some headers.
Merging the driver to FreeBSD 9.x may be possible but not a priority for
now.
