libdrm has supported the newer execbuffer2 ioctl and using it by default

which landed Mar 2, 2010.  The i915 and i965 drivers in Mesa at the time

both used libdrm and so did the Intel X11 back-end.  The SNA back-end

for X11 has always used execbuffer2.

Don't we want to clean up references to legacy execbuffer in

include/uapi/drm/i915_drm.h too?

I thought about that but Daniel said we should leave them. Maybe a comment is in order?
