It could be overridden by the DDX driver. However, there is the issue of
using an older DDX driver with a newer kernel.

Makes sense, but it means that gamma will not work for 30-bit colour in
Xorg until the DDX driver uses the new gamma mechanism, which might
require switching to the atomic KMS API as well. Is that okay?
