Not necessary, submitting an UVD create messages while creating the =

driver object should just result in an error code when UVD is not available.

When handled like this it doesn't matter if the kernel has no UVD =

support at all, no UVD support for this hardware generation or UVD just =

failed to initialize.

Currently we just don't handle the return code so well in mesa (feel =

free to fix that).
