  DisplayLink displays are black after Mesa update

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  On Mesa versions before 21.0.x glamor_egl_init failed which then (luckily)
  disabled reverse_prime_offload_mode. But now with the new Mesa the 
GL_RENDERER has changed and glamor_egl_init succeeds and then enables 
reverse_prime_offload_mode. This backported commit disables 
reverse_prime_offload_mode for good for DisplayLink (udl, evdi) devices.

  [Test case]

  Update xserver, check that DisplayLink device (udl and/or evdi as
  available) works fine.

  [Where things could go wrong]
  This commit only disables reverse_prime_offload_mode for udl, evdi devices, 
other devices will not be affected.

  'udl' is used by old USB2 based DisplayLink devices that have a native kernel 
driver
  'evdi' is used by newer USB3 based devices that use an out-of-tree driver 
provided by Displaylink

  both need the same change, as they are otherwise similar

  at least evdi devices (as found on some laptop docks) have been tested
  to work with this
