| With the previous patch, the modesetting driver can now return whether
the driver supports hw cursor.  However, it alone doesn't suffice,
unfortunately. drmmode_load_cursor_argb_check() is called in the
following chain:
  xf86CursorSetCursor()
    -> xf86SetCursor()
       -> xf86DriverLoadCursorARGB()
         -> xf86_load_cursor_argb()
           -> xf86_crtc_load_cursor_argb()
             -> drmmode_load_cursor_argb_check()
*but* at first with drmmode_crtc->cursor_up = FALSE.  Then the
function doesn't actually set the cursor but returns TRUE
unconditionally.  The actual call of drmmode_set_cursor() is done at
first via the show_cursor callback, and there is no check of sw cursor
fallback any longer at this place. Since it's called only once per
cursor setup, so the xserver still thinks as if the hw cursor is
supported.
This patch is an ad hoc fix to correct the behavior somehow: it does
call drmmode_set_cursor() at the very first time even if cursor_up is
FALSE, then quickly hides again.  In that way, whether the hw cursor
is supported is evaluated in the right place at the right time.
Of course, it might be more elegant if we have a more proper mechanism
to fall back to sw cursor at any call path.  But it'd need more
rework, so I leave this workaround as is for now.

					X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
