The fact that the struct has no room to grow worries me a bit, when we
are nearly half way through using the available space, without even
adding permutations of float/sRGB/etc..
(and note: just a quick look at the trm/hrd for 8016 and it looks like
we could easily add things like permutations of 5551, 4444, etc..
those 23 formats aren't even trying to cover everything the hw could
do)
Maybe something like:
struct drm_format_support {
u16 base;
u16 pad;
u32 mask; /* bitmask relative to base */
u64 modifier;
};
would be a bit more future proof..
