+ * 2. Other callers where the context is known:
+ *       st_manager_flush_frontbuffer -> dri2_flush_frontbuffer
+ *          -> EGL droid_display_shared_buffer
+ *
+ * 3. Other callers where the context is unknown:
+ *       loader: dri3_handle_present_event - XCB_PRESENT_CONFIGURE_NOTIFY
+ *       eglQuerySurface -> dri3_query_surface
+ *          -> loader_dri3_update_drawable_geometry
