Fall back to fb pixmaps for backing glyph pictures
GEM pads pixmaps to 512 byte stride and backs them with a kernel side
buffer objects. We typically don't render out of glyph pictures, so
we're incurring a lot of overhead per glyph by allocating a GEM pixmap
per glyph. By looking at the usage hint, we can fall back to
fbCreatePixmap for pixmaps backing glyph pictures, which gives us
a nice tight malloced pixmap. The fast path for text rendering is
compositing from the glyph cache pixmap to the destination, which
shouldn't be significantly affected.
Quick bit of testing:
(firefox-20090601)
xlib-rgba-before 384512.49: 1.01x
xlib-rgba-after 389633.94: 1.00x
The difference being within the margin of error for the benchmark.
