I got some lockup after adding agp support but i don't know if it came from my playing with the r300 (most probable source :)) or from the cache collision you are talking about. Anyway it's not time to think to that :) Have good hollydays. I will look a bit further in this to see if i can find anythings that may helps.
One possiblily to fix the potential issue of cache collision would be to steal the AGP pages from the hugetlb pool (large pages) instead of small 4k pages. This would make it possible to unmap them individually from the kernel linear mapping... Ben.
