Adding a couple of compositor devs as they might be interested in this.

For this new CRTC property is added. I don't think CRTC is the right place for this. Scaling tends to be more of a plane thing. Planes can be scaled independently, or is that not the case for Intel? Or does Intel HW do this sharpening operation independent of any scaling, on the entire output? > The user can set this property with desired sharpness strength value with > 0-255.

It would be very helpful to have an idea how this looks in userspace, and which compositors will implement this.
