Thanks to you for the review.
What I've documented there about the A5xx chips having ZAP and the ones not
having it, came out after a research in the downstream KGSL driver, where qcom
does this distinction based on just the Adreno model, which is the main reason
why I did it like that :)))

I am personally not aware of any A5xx chip having this behavior, so that's why I
didn't even try to think different about this patch. It just seemed to
be the right
thing to do...
