As Frej mentioned, this controversy is about xf86-video-intel, not Mesa.
However, since you brought it up...Mesa's EGL implementation needs to know about the underlying window system (X11, Wayland, Mir, surfaceflinger, etc.), since that's sort of EGL's job. The rest of Mesa doesn't know or care.
The Mesa patches haven't been upstreamed yet either. As far as I know, xf86-video-intel was the only thing that ever had support (if briefly).
