It is exposed via is_system_bitmap().

Yes, that's why I think the external behaviour should stay the same, i.e
create_system_bitmap() should return a bitmap for which is_system_bitmap()
is true.
The system bitmaps have worked nicely so far on all gfx drivers, so I don't
see why we should change the behaviour of create_system_bitmap() now.
