Yes, precisely what I had in mind. I don't know if this is the "right"
solution, but it'll definitely work. Ideally we'd somehow find out
from the agpgart that we shouldn't be trying to use AGP, since adding
this quirk to every agp-supporting driver seems like a pain. OTOH this
is long-dead hardware, so a quick hack like this is fine by me. radeon
has a much more extensive list IIRC, may want to add it in there as
well for good measure if it's not already there.
