Here you say r700+, and on bug #3466 you say r600+, but according to
<A HREF="http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeatureUMS">http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeatureUMS</A> they should work with UMS.

Do you have some additional information on this that indicates we should
disallow UMS on r600 or r700 as well?
