So this is my fault.

I posted the patch and there was a discussion with Chris Wilson at Intel
on dri-devel following the post concluding that the intel user-space
driver was type-casting dumb buffers, and that that was legitimate since
it didn't take place in generic user-space, but in a driver that had
detailed knowledge of the driver.

So I should have explicitly have withdrawn the patch. I'm sorry about this.

Thanks,
Thomas
