Leandro Ribeiro 2b6a421915 pipe-loader: add pipe_loader_get_compatible_render_capable_device_fd()
pipe_loader_get_compatible_render_capable_device_fd() receives the fd of
a KMS-only platform device, find a compatible render-only device that is
available and returns the fd of its DRM render node.

This function will be helpful to fix a long standing issue that is
preventing us to add support for EGL_EXT_device_drm_render_node for
split display/render SoCs. And it will also help KMSRO to select a
render-only driver that we are sure that is compatible, because
currently KMSRO uses whatever render-only driver is available.

In sort, in the EGL GBM platform case, the GBM device may be created
with a KMS-only device. The information of what render driver will be
selected by KMSRO is not available before creating the EGLDevice global
list. Without this information we don't have a render node to use in the
EGL_EXT_device_drm_render_node query. We've tried to fix this before,
but failed. See [1-2].

For the moment, this function only works for platform KMS-only devices.
For other types of KMS-only devices, we'll need to add more heuristics.

appropriate, you should ask your question on `OFTC's #dri-devel
<irc://irc.oftc.net/dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
