Top of src/util/ralloc.h?

Counting uniforms/attributes is all a confusing mess.  I can confirm
that what I do in v3d works, I just can't explain how without going and
re-studying it.

Basically the only thing I have any concern about is allowing
end-user/distro builds of a panfrost_dri.so that doesn't actually work
(so, some day when panfrost.ko shows up upstream, suddenly the loader
starts trying to load this panfrost_dri.so and things break).  For V3D I
had the build disabled on ARM until I had the kernel ABI settled (since
I was doing dev on x86 using a simulator), but I don't have a good
solution if you're doing all your work on ARMs.  Maybe keep it out of
the list of drivers available in meson for now, since you're clearly
carrying out-of-tree code anyway?
