Almost all SoCs from SDM845 to SM8550 inclusive feature a GC1.8

This series adds configures the GCv1.8 on all the relevant SoCs.
Does this mean that we will see gamma_lut support soon?
No promises, my plate is not even full, it's beyond overflowing! :P

So I think I wrote about this before during the catalog rework/fixes
that the gc registers are not written to / programmed.
If thats not done, is there any benefit to this series?
Completeness and preparation for the code itself, if nothing else?
The usual problem is that if something is not put to use, it quickly
rots or becomes misused for newer platforms. We have seen this with
the some of DPU features.
In case of GC (and the freshly defined DPU_DSPP_IGC, but not used) we
have three options:
- drop the unused GC from msm8998_sblk.
- keep things as is, single unused GC entry
- fill all the sblk with the correct information in hope that it stays
correct
Each of these options has its own drawbacks. I have slight bias
towards the last option, to have the information in place (as long as
it is accurate).
My vote is for (1) . Today, GC is unused and from the discussion here,
there is no concrete plan to add it. If we keep extending an unused
bitmask for all the chipsets including the ones which will get added in
the future in the hope that someday the feature comes, it doesnt sound
like a good idea.
I would rather do (1), if someone has time.
Agree, this was the second item on my preference list. Could you please
send this oneliner?
Nit (to make sure we're on the same thought here): I think it's a
3-liner: remove it from DSPP_MSM8998_MASK as well as msm8998_dspp_sblk.
OR lets stay at (2) till
someone does (1).
I'm personally okay leaving it in place too, with an eye on implementing
this, IGC, and other blocks at some point if there's a use for it via
standard DRM properties.
I took a quick glance. I think it is possible, but not straightforward.
But I must admit here, I don't have a full picture regarding different
color encodings, ranges and the rest of gamma/degamma API and usage.
I think its easier to remove this now and then add it when we add the
support. As discussed, will post this shortly.
Otherwise, whenever any new chipset gets added, we will run into the
same question of whether to add GC or not.
When someone implements GC, we can re-use this patch and that time keep
konrad's author rights or co-developed by.
Good to at least know all these SoCs have the same offset and revision.
