Thanks for this contribution. On the first iteration, Fabio asked the
question of whether this package was really needed.

Do you know why this isn't in upstream libdrm ? Will these additional
features always be part of a separate libdrm-package project/package,
or is it planned to have them merged in libdrm at some point ?

Indeed, the fact that libdrm already has support for etnaviv makes the
thing a bit strange.

Could you comment on this ?

Thanks,

Thomas
