Current DRI is certainly a PITA unless you know it well but the kernel
side is quite trivial underneath the macrotrastrophe and preprocessor
abuse. 

Its mappable buffers, queue, interrupt handler, X<->kernel auth mapping,
and thats it

Also I'd note several folks are doing DRI nowday without Tungsten - VIA
did the Savage and VIA drivers, sis6326 is a WIP but its also not
tungsten stuff.
