The context functions are not used by the i915 driver and should not be used by modeset drivers. These driver functions contain several bugs and security holes. This change makes these functions optional can be turned on by a setting, they are turned off by default for modeset driver with the exception of the nouvea driver that may require them with an old version of libdrm.
