Default xorg.conf is for x86 devices

Default xorg.conf is for x86 devices

[Marcin Juszkiewicz]

Hi

Can we replace default xorg.conf with empty one? I finally got X11
working on AArch64 just to notice that I have to remove xorg.conf file
to get them started.

In OE/classic defaults were "usable" for any random hardware...

I'm all for removing xorg.conf wherever it's possible assuming it
still works.  The default should be no xorg.conf with machine
overrides where required.

I also support this. I have override it in our internal layer to make
it more generic.

I'm all for removal. Machine should add their xorg.conf taking into
consideration a specific driver or some other needed configurations.
