Don't crash X server if GPU acceleration is not available

Alexey Sheplyakov requested to merge asheplyakov/xf86-video-ati:master into master

Commit d1d8e3c8 causes X server to fail on startup when GPU acceleration is not working (or is disabled). The reason is that radeon_get_pixmap_bo function gets called too early (before EXA has been initialized) and fails with an assert:

Don't call exaGetPixmapDriverPrivate if the acceleration (EXA) is not enabled [yet] to avoid the problem.
