[Bug 1643789] Re: Backport packages for 16.04.2 lts-hwe stack

[Timo Aaltonen]

Proprietary drivers (nvidia versions, there is no fglrx anymore) don't
use these.

The libdrm diff apart from freedreno (free driver for RasPi) is minimal,
and actually reverting one commit which makes vc4 use headers from
libdrm would make the backport unnecessary. It would be more useful to
backport 2.4.73 from zesty instead.. (adds hw support for some amd
polaris etc)
