Andrew currently has the following patch
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.5/2.6.5-mm3/broken-out/drm-put_user-fixes.patch

for some missig put_user in the i8x0 drivers, I've checked into CVS a
version using DRM_PUT_USER_UNCHECKED rather than put_user (Andrew the
macro goes to __put_user under the hood), however I can't think of a way
to check in the __user annotations that are used (I know the i8x0 aren't
BSD friendly yet but I'd rather not make em worse, and I don't think
__user works with 2.4 in general)

how important are the __user annotations?
Do we need some compat in order to do this?

Dave.
