Virtual display can be enabled only for specific GPUs, so this could
result in supports_atomic == false when it should be true.

This won't catch cases where the first GPU probed has supports_atomic ==
false, then a later one has supports_atomic == true.


All in all this seems a bit messy, it might be worth looking into
converting DRIVER_ATOMIC to a per-device flag instead.
