I'm glad to see more devices using upstream KMS interface. Usually
custom UAPI should not be needed for such devices.

Can you elaborate why this is required? Is there an open-source
userspace that uses these?

These properties look like they should live in the device-tree bindings.

There is UAPI to manage LUT (or was it WIP with patches on the list) via
the atomic API. Is that not flexible enough for your needs?

Similarly to the LUT above, the atomic UAPI has support for partial
updates. The property is called FB_DAMAGE_CLIPS and there is an example
in weston how to use it see 009b3cfa6f16bb361eb54efcc7435bfede4524bc.
