By that logic nearly all the X drivers in oe-core should be in meta-yocto-bsp (synaptics, intel, modesetting, omap, omapfb, keyboard, mouse), but then we'd be forcing people using anything other than qemu to use meta-yocto-bsp (or duplicate the recipes). A more nuanced rationale for keeping modesettings/intel/etc is that whilst the driver isn't used on QEMU it is in use on a large number of machines so it can be centrally maintained in oe-core. I'm not convinced this holds for -mga (unless you're reading this from the late 90s) so it should be in meta-yocto-bsp.
