Intel 2.2.1 release planning

I'm trying to put together a 2.2.1 Intel driver release (was hoping for 
this week but that might not happen) given that we had at least a 
couple of major regressions in 2.2 relative to 2.1.1.  The blocker bug 
is 13493, and I'm interested in hearing if there are any other major 
regressions that should be on the list, so please reply to this message 
or to me personally and I'll see that they're added.

The main problems so far seem to be the Xv crasher (13108) and the pipe 
enable bug (13196) I introduced while fixing a crash on 8xx chips for 
the 2.2 release.

We already know about the EXA performance problems people have been 
seeing, but unfortunately those fixes won't be ready for this release.  
However, XAA is still available, so you can use "AccelMethod" "XAA" in 
your xorg.conf if needed.

Thanks,
Jess
