[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] egl/dri2: do not leak dri2_dpy->driver_name

Originally all hardware drivers duplicate the driver_name string
from an external source, while for the software rasterizer we set
it to "swrast". Follow the example set by hw drivers this way
we can free the string at dri2_terminate().

v2: Use strdup over strndup. Suggested by Ilia Mirkin.

Normally I prefer strn* functions, although in this case looks ugly.

Thanks for the suggestion Ilia.
