Subject: [PATCH] x86: fix broken flushing in GART nofullflush path

In the non-default nofullflush case the GART is only flushed when
next_bit wraps around. But it can happen that an unmap operation unmaps
memory which is behind the current next_bit location. If these addresses
are reused it may result in stale GART IO/TLB entries. Fix this by
setting the GART next_bit always behind an unmapped location.
