This and a handful of other DRM drivers got disabled because they
present insecure APIs to userspace. The recommendation provided from
upstream developers is "to use the safe modeset-only drivers instead,
and perform 3D emulation in user-space." If that isn't practical for
some reason we might be able to re-enable the drivers. However we
probably need at minimum to exclude these from module signing, and
perhaps even blacklist those modules by default.
