Hi Christian,
Hats off for the tremendous work - both to you and fellow etnaviv hackers !

I've poked you on this one on IRC, but I'll mention it here for posterity:
Having the etnaviv_dri.so sounds a bit odd. You mentioned it was used
by the armada ddx, yet I'm too familiar with either one to know why
using imx_dri.so isn't feasible.
Note: I'm _not_ saying "this is rubbish you cannot have etnaviv_dri.so".
All I'm asking for is to document $reason why one cannot use the
latter - be that in the commit message and/or code.
With those couple of small suggestions, I'd say "when can we ship it" ;-)
Thanks
Emil
P.S. Seems like 2/3 could use virtually every comment from 3/3. I.e.
the targets/dri changes did not make it in the squashed branch.
