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?

Can I ignore this code change, I assume I can given that the driver works without changes.

You should be able to. But, in my opinion, it would be better to determine why the 4.5 driver works better for you than the 4.6 one, aside from the Xv thing.
