[Bug 632488] [NEW] i915/intel-agp fail to load on newer intel sandybridge platforms.

[Robert Hooker]

Public bug reported:

The i915/intel-agp modules fail to load on newer sandybridge GPU's
because the pci id's are missing. It only binds to preproduction devices
currently but the shipping id's have been pushed upstream. For the
kernel these are the 2 relevant commits

Adds sandybridge mobile D0 stepping support:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/120293/

Adds more variants:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/159971/

The first patch is in upstream linux-2.6 here

xserver-xorg-video-intel also needs updating to recognize these new
devices and the commits are upstream
