Why _is_ that AGP code using those silly thing in the first place?
I actually looked at writing an AGP subdriver without using any of the
common AGP infrastructure (just writing the "insert_entries()" and
"remove_entries()" functions directly, without caring about those broken
AGP "generic helper functions") and it looked _simpler_ than much of the
crap that is there now.
It's sad when the helper functions end up being more bother than help.
