Now that DRI is on by default on r5xx, we might as well set EXA as
default instead of XAA.

What is the performance of EXA vs. XAA, what are the benefits?

E.g. for the intel driver both EXA and UXA are currently extremely slow
compared to XAA (which is no longer officially supported), which is
giving us quite some headaches here at SuSE.

I don't think we already support framebuffer resizing - that would be a
reason to move to EXA.
