Will think on it for v4, thanks.

In general it should work. Don't know for sure how well Intel Mesa
driver works on ARM, suppose it should work okay because Intel now has
dGPUs. Intel Mesa driver has x86-specific assumptions, though maybe they
are optional for dGPUs. You may try to plug a DG2 card into your AVA
machine and report back :)
