I'm ruminating, while they are security fixes, I'm hesitant to push them
ASAP, without further testing, the /dev/agpgart hasn't really been used
by much in around 5 years, so getting a userspace and hardware that can
test it is quite a lot of fun, though I suppse on the other side, nobody
will notice if it breaks anything for 2 years.
