[Bug 927424] [NEW] Please backport commit to enable building without irrelevant drm libs on some arches

[Robert Hooker]

Public bug reported:

Starting in libdrm 2.4.31 which will hopefully be pulled into precise,
libdrm-intel1 will only build on x86/x64 arches. We are needless
building/shipping irrelevant libdrm-intel1 on arches such an
armel/armhf/powerpc that can never use it in libdrm to work around this
bug but the fix has been commited upstream a year ago to plymouth

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/plymouth/commit/?id=22a1273bb2c9dc0d3188b8ed11b0c97bfca6d3ef

Backporting this plus passing --disable-libdrm-intel at configure time
on !i386/!amd64 would be really appreciated as well as save on the image
size.
