Remove the PCI ID device checks by using the simpler check on the

Zaphod support is a rudimentary method for creating an Xserver with
multiple screens from a single device. The Device is instantiated, with
a duplication of its resources, as many as required up to a maximum of
the number of its outputs, and each instance is attached to a Screen
and added to the ServerLayout. A Device can be bound to a selection of
outputs using a comma separated list of RandR names.
Note: in general, this is not the preferred solution! And will be
superseded by per-crtc-pixmaps in RandR-1.4.
For example, the following xorg.conf fragment creates an XServer with
two screens, one attached to the LVDS panel on the laptop, and the other
to any external output:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel0"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
Option "ZaphodHeads" "LVDS1"
Screen 0
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel1"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
Option "ZaphodHeads" "DVI1,VGA1"
Screen 1
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Intel0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen1"
Device "Intel1"
EndSection
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "default"
Screen "Screen0"
Screen "Screen1"

The premise is that switching between rings (i.e. the BLT and
RENDER rings) on SandyBridge imposes a large latency overhead whilst
rendering. The cause is that in order to switch rings, we need to split
the batch earlier than is desired and to add serialisation between the
rings. Both of which incur large overhead.
By switching to using a pure 3D blit engine (ok, not so pure as the BLT
engine still has uses for the core drawing model which can not be easily
represented without a combinatorial explosion of shaders) we can take
advantage of additional efficiencies, such as relative relocations, that
have been incorporated into recent hardware advances. However, even
older hardware performs better from avoiding the implicit context
switches and from the batching efficiency of the 3D pipeline...
But this is X, and PolyGlyphBlt still exists and remains in use. So for
the operations that are not worth accelerating in hardware, we introduce a
shadow buffer mechanism through out and reintroduce pixmap migration.
Doing this efficiently is the cornerstone of ensuring that we do exploit
the increased potential of recent hardware for running old applications and
environments (i.e. so that the latest and greatest chip is actually faster
than gen2!)
For the curious, sna is SandyBridge's New Acceleration. If you are
running older chipsets and welcome the performance increase offered by
this patch, then you may choose to call it Snazzy instead.

[Note the performance regression for ocitysmap comes from that we now
attempt to support rendering to and (more importantly) from large
surfaces. By enabling such operations is the only way to one day be
faster than purely using the CPU, in the meantime we suffer regression
due to the increased migration and aperture thrashing. The other couple
of regressions will be eliminated with improved span and shader support,
now that the framework for such is in place.]
The performance increase for Cairo completely overlooks the other
critical aspects of the architecture:
World of Padman:
gen3 (800x600): 57.5 -> 96.2
gen4 (800x600): 47.8 -> 74.6
gen6 (1366x768): 100.4 -> 140.3 [F15]
144.3 -> 146.4 [drm-intel-next]
x11perf (gen6);
aa10text: 3.47 -> 14.3 Mglyphs/s [unthrottled!]
copywinwin10: 1.66 -> 1.99 Mops/s
copywinpix10: 2.28 -> 2.98 Mops/s
And we do not have a good measure for how much improvement the reworking
of the fallback paths give, except that xterm is now over 4x faster...
PS: This depends upon the Xorg patchset "Remove the cacheing of the last
scratch PixmapRec" for correct invalidations of scratch Pixmaps (used by
the dix to implement SHM operations, used by chromium and gtk+ pixbufs.

This is one less place the new hardware enabler has to spam the
chipset in. The PciChipset is just a match structure from PciId to
the SymTabRec entry token, and our SymTabRec entry tokens are just the
PciId, so it's trivial to construct.

We need to have this array anyway for the xf86 interfaces, apparently,
so just store the name in one location. This drops the i852/i855
subdevice distinction in the name printed, but I haven't seen us ever
care about that.
