[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The attached patch enables drivers in mesa which should allow some
aarch64/armhf rockchip platforms (e.g. veyron-speedy, pinebook pro) to
make use of gpu acceleration.

I haven't thoroughly tested this patch yet, but it does at least build
and produces an appropriate dri library!

There are almost 2000 dependent packages on mesa, so this probably needs
though core-updates according to current recommendations... I haven't
tried rebuilding all the dependent packages? FWIW, I *think* it will
only trigger a rebuild on aarch64/armhf.

Indeed.  We are just about to start the core-updates branch, so this
patch came just in time.  LGTM, please push!
