 From the perspective of a client that wishes to change a property, the
process between regular properties and blob properties should be
essentially the same. Both will trigger an atomic commit when the DRM
set property ioctl is called from our DDX driver.

The only difference is that DRM property blobs can be arbitrary in size,
and needs to be passed by reference through its DRM-defined blob ID.
Because of this, the client has to create the blob, save it's id, call
libXrandr to change it, then destroy the blob after it's been committed.

The client has to call libXrandr due to DRM permissions. IIRC, there can
be only one DRM master. And since xserver is DRM master, an external
application cannot set DRM properties unless it goes through X. However,
creating and destroying DRM property blobs and can be done by anyone.

Was this the source of the clunkiness? I've thought about having DDX
create and destroy the blob instead, but that needs an interface for the
client to get arbitrarily sized data to DDX. I'm not aware of any good
ways to do so. Don't think the kernel can do this for us either. It does
create the blob for legacy gamma, but that's because there's a dedicated
ioctl for it.

Good point, I originally thought the sizes are fixed and did not need
exposing. But who knows if they may change, or even be different per asic.

Will fix all style problems.
