The matrox driver has a macro WaitTillIdle() that should wait until the blitter is idle, but it sometimes doesn't work. I added a dummy read mga_inl(M_STATUS) to WaitTillIdle() to fix the problem. The dummy read will flush the write buffer in the PCI chipset, and the next read of M_STATUS will return the hardware status. Since applying this patch, I had no screen corruption at all.

It contains generic video related files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev device drivers, fbdev framework files. Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev directory, and move all fbdev related files there. No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this patch.
