This is not a good fix; the same dance as for the !tex case in
xorg_dri2.c:driDoCreateBuffer() would be necessary to ensure that
there's a pixmap driver private and a texture. I consciously left that
out because I couldn't seem to find any case where the driver private
doesn't exist. If such cases do indeed exist, I'd rather get a clean
crash than more subtle failure.

In general, one must be careful not to just paper over theoretical
issues pointed out by automated tools.
