At least for PIPE_USAGE_STREAM buffers that's a bad idea, cause they are
used by VDPAU to read back to data to a CPU buffer and that's really
slow from VRAM.
From src/gallium/docs/source/screen.rst:
* ``PIPE_USAGE_DEFAULT``: Optimized for fast GPU access.
* ``PIPE_USAGE_IMMUTABLE``: Optimized for fast GPU access and the resource is
not expected to be mapped or changed (even by the GPU) after the first upload.
* ``PIPE_USAGE_DYNAMIC``: Expect frequent write-only CPU access. What is
uploaded is expected to be used at least several times by the GPU.
* ``PIPE_USAGE_STREAM``: Expect frequent write-only CPU access. What is
uploaded is expected to be used only once by the GPU.
* ``PIPE_USAGE_STAGING``: Optimized for fast CPU access.
That reads to me like only PIPE_USAGE_STAGING is expected to provide fast
CPU reads.
Forget what I've wrote, we do this handling by letting the driver copy
the bitmap content to a staging texture. All other use case indeed use
PIPE_USAGE_STAGING.
