I have a via driver (Unichrome from last November plus patches) that works

I can build and use this same driver code is a trivia patch under 4.6.0 but
xvinfo reports
that there is an XVIDEO adapters.
Looking at the diffs of the xfree86 via driver between 4.5.0 and 4.6.0 I seem
to see that
all that changed, apart from new features, is loader stuff:
- LoaderRefSymLists(vgaHWSymbols,
+ LoaderModRefSymLists(module,
+ vgaHWSymbols,
Do I need to make these loader changes to get correct operation or does your
fallback code
work correctly in all cases?
Where should I look to debug why XVIDEO is not showing up under 4.6.0?
This would be answered by your subsequent query about the XvExtension
symbol's disappearance.
