Can we get a pair of eyes looking this direction. Imho it's a very
worthy idea if we can finally get into a standardised way (and yes I'm
not talking about environment variables) of handling multiple devices
with EGL.

Recently we landed a libdrm helper which should help you with making
this work libudev agnostic and dropping most of these two. There
hasn't been a libdrm release with it, so we can still tweak the API :)
