Afaics it's very had to get in this code nowadays - drm_server_info is
set only via the legacy (?) function drmSetServerInfo. With the latter
only(?) used by the xserver when working with dri1 modules. So testing
this is likely to be very painful :-(
This code hasn't changed since before 2007, so I doubt there are many
people that know the details about it, so we might as well leave it for
now ?
