As Gerd said, compositors will render software cursors. Theoretically,
you could measure (maybe see) a difference. In practice not so much.
I'd keep HW cursor support if it was useful, but it isn't. The HW
supports 16-color palettes. That's simply not enough to be useful for
most desktops.
The cursor image is ARGB. The old code used .set_cursor callbacks and
returned an error if the ARGB format could not be fit into the 16-color
palette. On errors, userspace switched to software cursors. From what I
observed, I'd guess that GNOME et al already used SW cursors most of the
time.
With the new atomic interfaces and the dirtyfb ioctl, there's no way of
signalling an error during palette conversion. So userspace wouldn't
know if the HW cursor is visible.
Alternatively to removing the code, the driver could dither the ARGB
cursor image to 16 colors; no matter what the result looks like. But
that's not an option IMHO.
