Why is returning a 4.5 context a problem?  It's supposed to be more-or-less
backwards compatible.

I'm also a bit concerned about making this driconf option be global across
drivers without it being just a maximum.  Suppose someone sets it to 4.3
for some app that doesn't like 4.5.  What happens if they try to run that
app on hardware that doesn't support 4.3?  Do they get a 4.3 context that
just doesn't work?
