[PATCH Raring] drm: add prime helpers

Hi all,

The attached patches come from NVIDIA's Aaron Plattner's branch:

git://github.com/aaronp24/linux

The first patch adds some helpers for the dma_buf functionality (which
we need for hybrid graphics) whereas the other two patches make both the
nouveau driver and the radeon driver use these helpers.

The patches apply cleanly to Raring's kernel sources and would be a
first step towards having hybrid graphics working even with NVIDIA's
binary blob.

Please have a look at the patches and (if possible) integrate them in
Raring's kernel.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Regards,
