[PATCH libdrm] xf86drm: fallback to normal path when realpath fails

Earlier commit reworked our sysfs handling to use realpath.
Sadly that backfired since the Firefox sandboxing mechanism rejects
that. Despite the files/folders being in the allowed list, of the
sandboxing mechanism.

Oddly enough, the Chromium sandboxing doesn't complain about any of
this.

Since there are no Firefox releases with the fix, add a temporary
solution which falls back to the original handling.

Sadly, this won't work for virgl.

Gents, this should bring things back to normal. Can you please give it a
try?

Would be great to see Firefox roll out updates which make this workaround
unnessesary ;-)
