Got the answer from jcristau:

/usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-core/NEWS.Debian.gz

xorg-server (2:1.2.99.905-3) experimental; urgency=low

 * This server update includes a patch to enable proper module defaults
   in the server. A default set of modules will be loaded unless you
   specifically specify that they don't load. You may do this in the
   module section of your xorg.conf using the "Disable"
   instruction. Note that this will only override the default, not an
   explicit "Load".

   This change will not affect most users, however if you have a
   customized xorg.conf in which you comment out "Load" lines to disable
   modules, you will want to change those lines so that they are
   uncommented and say "Disable" instead of "Load". The most notable
   example of this is the dri module, which is now loaded by
   default. Those who experience crashes when dri is enabled will want
   to make this change to ensure that their system does not begin to
   crash again.
