[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 0/4] i965: Safer pointer arithmetic

The pointer arithmetic overflow bug that led me to make commit b69c7c5dac, in
addition to crashing Google Chrome, had another side-effect: It filled me with
paranoia that i965 may be riddled with pointer arithmetic overflow.

So I went on a witch hunt. I grepped i965 for "->virtual\>" and
"intel_miptree_map", looked closely for code that smelled like pointer
arithmetic overflow, and proactively fixed the potential bug. The result is
this patch series.

No Piglit change on Ivybridge GT2.

Patches are on my branch [1] 'i965-safer-pointer-arith'.

I think patch 3 is suitable for the stable branches. Let me what you think
about that.
