If CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=y it works (I have agp) both with no kernel command
line parameters as well as with iommu=allowed in kernel command line.

If CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=m it works (I have agp) with no kernel command
line parameters. If I boot to no graphics (runlevel 3 in slackware),
lsmod output is:

amd64_agp 7463 1
agpgart 27765 1 amd64_agp

amd64_agp is in use (not known by who), cannot be unloaded and I cannot
test load/unload.

If CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=m and iommu=allowed is in kernel command line
I have no agp.
dmesg:
[drm:mga_do_agp_dma_bootstrap] *ERROR* Unable to acquire AGP: -19
If I boot to no graphics and try:
modprobe amd64_agp
FATAL: Error inserting amd64_agp
(/lib/modules/2.6.33-rc5/kernel/drivers/char/agp/amd64-agp.ko): No such
device

For info: iommu=allowed changes gart_iommu_aperture_allowed from 0 to 1.

I am ready for further testing.
