[Intel-gfx] Proposal for rules for maintaining the 2.7 branch

[Clemens Eisserer]

Well, after using Okular a lot (which seems to have a stupid pixmap
cache algorythm), I had:

 PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 2686 root      20   0 2596m 1.8g 1.8g S 10.2 62.9   4:21.91 X

Of course, Okular should be improved (I was able to have one Okular
instance holding 500mb pixmaps), but on the other side I can't imaging
mapping that much is healthy.

I also experienced major troubles after some time, like firefox
refusing to display some large images or crashes when enabling kwin's
xrender composition manager - which only seem to happen after I've
used the system for some time.
