Hm where do these drivers copy stuff around and rematch the stride?

I think it would be good to document this.

We already fake xrgb8888 everywhere because userspace is not flexible
enough, I guess having to fake 64b stride support everywhere isn't that
much worse.

But it's definitely not great either :-/
