I can test any of these patches, but I doubt stuff like 3D will work if
this microcode is actually needed! This would be really, really, really
bad if we can do neither 3D nor acceleration. If this is the case, and
the GR goes ahead, IMO radeon_cp must be stuffed back in.

Next time we need a more thorough analysis, not just 'I don't think this
file gets used much anywhere'. That includes testing on the relevant
hardware: I have a Radeon 9000 which can be used for testing Radeon
stuff, but I just assumed it had been tested when it was asserted that
it was thoroughly unnecessary.
