re: kern/49362: drm2 GENERIC refresh leaves black areas Radeon HD 4550, ASRock Z77M, Intel i3-3225

it occurs to me that we've kept the xf86-video-ati driver back at
6.x because the 7.x driver demands KMS.  the 7.x driver is not
new at this point, and perhaps some of the display problems we're
seeing are due to the older driver.

updating will mean that all cards *require* drmkms or are forced
to use the vesa card... so it's pretty big hammer.

if someone wants to play with this, that would be great.  i'll
try to look, but i may not have time in the coming month.
