I guess I even question if this include should actually be anywhere in
this file.

It looks to me like this file at one time was meant to be included by
files other then drmP.h. Including drmP.h ensured __OS_HAS_AGP was
defined and a circular dependence was prevented by ifdefs surrounding
the bulk of drmP.h. As far as I can tell none of the includes in this
file are necessary anymore and a quick x86 compile seems to back me up
(please double check however). Once these are removed there is very
little functionality left and it might make more sense to just put in
into drmP.h. If in the future there is a need for this type of include
it can be started from scratch but for now I would say it should go
away.
