I was thinking more along the lines of pushing the actual check out of
I830CloseScreen (and friends) and into the intel_glamor routines. That
way the interface to glamor is fairly self-contained and the existing code
can be gradually whittled away until it is simply a call into
intel_glamor, at which point we can remove the existing layer.

Inside uxa, the inline checks are indeed better as this layer should be
tightly integrated with the available acceleration methods.
