The correct way to provide this information to userspace is for the
atomic test step to fail.  Admittedly the CrOS compositor makes some
invalid assumptions that if a given state was valid in the past, it
will be valid in the future.  But I don't see height/format/downscale
restrictions as a thing that would change from frame to frame.
