Without this, we attempt the handover too late, the firmware fb
might be accessing the chip simultaneously to us re-initializing
various parts of it, which might frighten babies or cause all sort
of nasty psychologic trauma to kitten.

This patch is required to get the agp rv270 in my ppc Mac Mini working with
kms.  Also tested on my agp rv570 on amd64, doesn't seem to have ill
effects there.

Please review and apply.

Thanks, Daniel
