drm/i810: remove the BKL



SMP i810 systems were practically nonexistent and the configuration
was not officially supported by Intel at the time when Pentium-III
was common.

With this change, it is still possible to build a distribution kernel
that has support for SMP and includes the i810 driver without the BKL.
As a precaution, check for the theoretical SMP case at run time and
refuse to load the driver.

We also need to disable CONFIG_PREEMPT builds for this driver.
