Also add notes that for atomic drivers it's really somewhere else and

Maybe we should put a bigger warning here that this is confusing,
since the pixel format is a plane property, but the GAMMA_LUT property
is on the crtc. But I think we can fix this if/when someone finds a
need for a per-plane CLUT, since I'm not sure such hw even exists. I'm

Older HW has cursor planes with separate palettes; 16 colors on Matrox IIRC. Not very useful for us, though.

Best regards

also not sure whether even hardware with a CLUT and a full color
correction pipeline with degamm/cgm/gamma exists.

Motivated by comments from Geert that we have a gap here.

v2: More names for color luts (Laurent).
