Yeah the rules for radeon_get_ib_value are that they are meant to be sequential,
but it actually doesn't matter as long as the values are within a page
of each other,
I was just avoiding multiple calls to get the same value with the idx_value, but
I think Alex or Jerome can clean this up a bit further anyways.

The semantics for that function are a bit underdocumented, and I thought
the other developers understood them after I explained them, but I found
out that they hadn't quite grasped the true extent of pain. So yes there
are other places that need to be cleaned up, but most of the time direct
ib access will work fine, until you have a buffer that straddles a
page boundary.

Yup I've reviewed it and it looks fine, any cleanup is just going to be
an optimisation.

So I'll work with Alex/Jerome to clean up anything else out-of-band
and hopefully
we can avoid any big conflicts in future!

Dave.
