Great news.

Testing - pretty much anything you do on a daily basis. None of the patches
should make _any_ difference. Have you tried vdpau/omx ?

Benchmarks - in theory we are a bit slower now. The series adds a few
dlopen/dlsym + libudev + strcmp calls, which happen (only once) upon screen
creation. The change should be unnoticeable. Unfortunately (?) gallium does
not use libdricore, thus the speed benefits of classic megadrivers, would
seems unlikely here :\

Feel free to give your favourite game/benchmark a go though :)

Thanks,
Emil
