agp/intel-agp: Clear entire GTT on startup
commit fc61901373987ad61851ed001fe971f3ee8d96a3 upstream.
Some BIOSes fail to initialise the GTT, which will cause DMA faults when
the IOMMU is enabled. We need to clear the whole thing to point at the
scratch page, not just the part that Linux is going to use.

driver bugs, by not drawing to memory we don't own]
