[Mesa-stable] [PATCH v2] loader: use drmDeviceUseRevisionFile to prevent waking up the GPUs

[Emil Velikov]

From: Emil Velikov <emil.velikov at collabora.com>

Currently the drmGetDevice[s] API parses the config sysfs file to
retrieve the revision field.

That is required since there's no separate file (nor a libudev call
afaict) that can be used. At the same time doing so causes the device to
be awaken, so if an application creates/destroys a GL context multiple
times they can observe noticeable delays. 2-3s in the case of
firefox/thunderbird/chromium + radeon module.

There's a kernel patch on the PCI mailing list, but until then we can
use drmDeviceUseRevisionFile() which will use separate sysfs files and
default to 0 if the revision one is missing.

Since we don't care about the revision id, we can use that.

v2: Add second invocation deep within loader_get_user_preferred_fd()

Just because some platforms use loader_get_user_preferred_fd while
others do not. That in itself happens prior to any other loader_get_*
call
