I think it's the right thing to do, in fact, I was preparing a
similar patch myself.  The change that removed this argued that
it was not the responsibility of the BSP layer, but if you look
around at other BSP layers, almost all of them do include this
driver as part of their X server setup.  It also lets X work
again on the RaspberryPi "out of the box" with the simplest
configuration - HDMI display + USB keyboard & mouse.
