When UMS was deprecated it removed support for nomodeset commandline
we really want this in distro land so we can debug stuff, everyone
should fallback to vesa correctly.

v2: oops -1 isn't used anymore, restore original behaviour
-1 is default, so we can boot with nomodeset on the command line,
then use radeon.modeset=1 to override it for debugging later.

Whoops.  Looks good to me.  Do you want me take this patch through my
tree or do you want to apply it?

I was really wondering what that code does exactly while removing it, 
now I know. Patch is:
