commit 764fb28a6b1c62699821e731c3cde6013f924403

    nb/i945/gma.c: Set the MSAC register correctly
    
    This fixes an instability on 945gc where the IGD completely locks
    up the system, when for instance tasked to do something with
    compositing (like GNOME or GDM).
    
    TESTED on ga-945gcm-s2l and d945gclf
    TEST: launch GDM (gnome display manager)
