If you're using any other Intel components - say Beignet or the va
driver, I think those still use libdrm_intel.

An alternative solution IMHO, is to drop/tweak the API to not bother
libpciaccess.
I have some ancient cleanup/rework branch

A really silly question - how are you triggering any of this if you're
building on !x86?
Is that because the GPU driver is not selected thus you we fall-back
to "build all"?

If so, it might be better to change things to:
 - error out if none selected
 - allow one to select "all", "x86", "arm" and similar groups thus
only the things that can build are build
eg. RobH had fun with x86 intrinsics while building the intel Vulkan
driver on ARM
