I feel there are too many clues indicating that the giant WAS real.  The
ring has been mentioned several times.  Cooper's assertion that "I am not
dreaming" (he's never wrong, right?), and lastly the fact that the giant
had to wake Cooper up (remember how he leaned over to check if he was
asleep).  I just don't see how "dreams" do these things.  Seems like 
Lynch is using every device short of a "swift kick to the head" to show
that the Giant is a physical presence.
