I only occasionally write kernel code, but can't there be any
concurrency issues during reads/writes of internal gmux registers (I
used a semaphore to prevent that)? Especially if vga_switcheroo also
taps in?

Aw.. maybe we should wait until Matthew actually posts his patch.
Seems like we invested both some work, pity that I didn't know of it.
