  [regression] u8 desktop session fails to start

Bug description:
  u8 desktop session fails to start, due to confusion surrounding platform selection (between mesa and kms). 
  The root cause seems to be that the nested server (as non-root) cannot become drm-master.

  This is somewhat related to lp: #1526209 in that this bug has to do with mesa platform selection, which changed in rev3089. 
  lp: #1526209 was about the client crashing though, and this bug is about the nested server not being able to start, so they seem to be a bit different.
