x86: checking aperture size order
some systems are using 32M for gart and agp when memory is less than 4G. Kernel will reject and try to allcate another 64M that is not needed, and we will waste 64M of perfectly good RAM. this patch adds a workaround by checking aper_base/order between NB and agp bridge. If they are the same, and memory size is less than 4G, it will allow it.
