Clemens Ladisch a5ee4eb754 PCI quirk: RS780/RS880: work around missing MSI initialization
AMD says in section 2.5.4 (GFX MSI Enable) of #43291 (AMD 780G Family
Register Programming Requirements):

  The SBIOS must enable internal graphics MSI capability in GCCFG by
  setting the following: NBCFG.NB_CNTL.STRAP_MSI_ENABLE='1'

Quite a few BIOS writers misinterpret this sentence and think that
enabling MSI is an optional feature.  However, clearing that bit just
prevents delivery of MSI messages but does not remove the MSI PCI
capabilities registers, and so leaves these devices unusable for any
driver that attempts to use MSI.

Setting that bit is not possible after the BIOS has locked down the
configuration registers, so we have to manually disable MSI for the
affected devices.

This fixes the codec communication errors in the HDA driver when
accessing the HDMI audio device, and allows us to get rid of the
overcautious quirk in radeon_irq_kms.c.

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
