Wouldn't be easier to call the "old" eglGetDisplay if eglGetPlatformDisplayEXT
returns EGL_NO_DISPLAY ? Kind of

     egl_dbg("eglGetDisplay (dpy %p) ...\n", dpy);
-    qemu_egl_display = eglGetDisplay(dpy);
+#ifdef EGL_MESA_platform_gbm
+    qemu_egl_display = eglGetPlatformDisplayEXT(EGL_PLATFORM_GBM_MESA, dpy, 
NULL);
+#else
+    qemu_egl_display = EGL_NO_DISPLAY;
+#endif
+    if (qemu_egl_display == EGL_NO_DISPLAY)
+        qemu_egl_display = eglGetDisplay(dpy);
     if (qemu_egl_display == EGL_NO_DISPLAY) {
         error_report("egl: eglGetDisplay failed");
         return -1;

Your patch should not even compile on older system which does not define
EGL_PLATFORM_GBM_MESA.

I tested my patch and works on both rawhide and FC25 (with very recent Mesa 
version)
