Summary: enable activation of southern islands radeon cards without blobs
The si.c file also needed to be patched to avoid the following probe
failure due to the missing MC firmrware:
[drm:si_startup [radeon]] *ERROR* Failed to load MC firmware!
radeon 0000:02:00.0: disabling GPU acceleration
radeon 0000:02:00.0:
00000000b8c27aec unpin not necessary
[drm:si_init [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon: MC ucode required for NI+.
radeon 0000:02:00.0: Fatal error during GPU init
[...]
radeon: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -22
This has been tested with the following GPU:
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Cape Verde PRO [Radeon HD 7750/8740 / R7 250E] [1002:683f]
Xorg, lightdm, xfce4, mplayer and wesnoth have been tested and work
fine, though in mplayer the OSD has some light artefacts.
