I believe the fix you want is http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/mesa-dev/2015-December/103585.html. I created and applied to openSUSE: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/349699. The patch created the named drivers that libva is expected which is consistent with drivers for everything else.
should be fixed.
