I don't have time to look at the patch in detail right now (will try to
ASAP), but FWIW: The xf86-video-ati EXA code actually programs the
hardware to B8G8R8A8 for the same buffers for which st/dri sets the
format to A8R8G8B8. The EXA code always swaps bytes with the CPU for
CPU<->GPU transfers. Is this patch consistent with that?
