Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The AMD/Intel pci-id's keep changing when new platforms are enabled. 
Currently, the new ones need to be added to the kernel, libdrm, mesa and 
xorg-server. This duplication is silly, as there's a limited number of drivers 
for a platform, so use a default (fallback) DRI driver for a vendor. For Intel 
it's i965, for AMD it's radeonsi.

  
  [Test case]
  check that the correct driver is still used on an Xorg session and DRI works

  [Regression potential]
  shouldn't be any
