If you want to keep it for your driver, please raise your hand.
The prefix will probably have to be added into the driver instead of here.
I cringe when I look at my long renderer string:
Gallium 0.4 on AMD Radeon R9 Fury Series (DRM 3.17.0 /
4.11.0-staging-01277-gab25a9e, LLVM 5.0.0)
I'm sincerely sorry for all apps that detect Mesa by expecting "Gallium"
in the string.
I agree that "0.4" is useless, but not sure about "Gallium on". The
length of the renderer string seems irrelevant (though you could shorten
it more by shortening the kernel version string :).
Beginning the string with AMD is likely to hit more paths in apps where
it is expecting the binary driver. This may be both a positive and a
negative.
