[Freedreno] freedreno android-x86 lollipop build

[Rob Clark]

tbh, I'm not too well versed on the diff's between android-x86/aosp/etc..

In the end the current instructions are pulling in
mesa/libdrm/drm_gralloc via .repo/local_manifests/ so I guess we
shouldn't actually be depending on much/anything that is specific to
android-x86.  (Otoh, once the mesa/drm_gralloc stuff upstream, and
android-x86 has moved to new-enough versions, we should be able to
drop the local_manifests stuff..)

BR,
