Hi,

since I upgraded to kernel 2.6.35, my mouse cursor is not fluid anymore. When I
move it, it stutters sometimes (that is, it makes a small jump on the screen). 

According to latencytop, it seems to come from drm_mod_cursor ioctl which takes
as much as 100ms when the cursor jump. I attach a screenshot of latencytop
window.
This issue seems to appears randomly, maybe more frequent when the cursor
change (arrow to select hand etc.) but I'm not sure.

I don't have this problem with 2.6.34 (nor 2.6.34.1 and 2.6.34.2 ). 
I'm using vanilla kernel (packaged by my distro but without any third party
patch) :
Linux tue-amour 2.6.35-1mdv #1 SMP Mon Aug 2 05:50:00 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64
x86_64 GNU/Linux

Xorg 1.7.7
radeon driver 6.13.1 with KMS 
mesa 7.8.1
libdrm 2.4.21

radeon 4870, only one screen attached.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV770 [Radeon HD 4870]
