I've attached a more complicated patch that does a 2 stage effort to
unmapping and freeing pages. My kernel no longer hangs with this
patch...

Jiri can you confirm?

I'll look at the other issue separately..

Subject: [PATCH] agp: fix race condition between unmapping and freeing pages

With Andi's clflush fixup, we were getting hangs on server exit, flushing
the mappings after freeing each page helped.

This showed up a race condition where the pages after being freed could be
reused before the agp mappings had been flushed. Flushing after each single
page is a bad thing for future drm work, so make the page destroy a two pass
unmapping all the pages, flushing the mappings, and then destroying the pages.
