system_get_accelerator() returns -1 if mmio memory lenght is 0.
I've checked the changes Claudio was working on at the time he did that
change. Looks like he was working on the nvidia and the r200 drivers.
But I still can't figure out what this change is good for.
What are our options now? I'd like to get rid of this questionable
check. But of course I could also introduce yet another hack in
system_get_accelerator() and special case the PXA3XX hardware. Any
opinions?
I think he did that to avoid usage of the accelerated driver when the
MMIO region is not exported.
The check for the mmio length should move into the driver.
Which drivers should have this check added?
I think ATI and/or nVidia, but basically all with MMIO.
