fix historic ioremap() abuse in AGP
Several AGP drivers right now use ioremap_nocache() on kernel ram in order to turn a page of regular memory uncached. There are two problems with this: 1) This is a total nightmare for the ioremap() implementation to keep various mappings of the same page coherent. 2) It's a total nightmare for the AGP code since it adds a ton of complexity in terms of keeping track of 2 different pointers to the same thing, in terms of error handling etc etc. This patch fixes this by making the AGP drivers use the new set_memory_XX APIs instead. Note: amd-k7-agp.c is built on Alpha too, and generic.c is built on ia64 as well, which do not yet have the set_memory_*() APIs, so for them some we have a few ugly #ifdefs - hopefully they'll be fixed soon.
