I suppose. And I guess that's where I started originally :/

But I'm not sure if it's better go that route or the other route of
reducing the arrays to some simple supersets and also utilize
.format_mod_supported() in plane init to filter out the unsupported
formats when populating the plane's format list. Probably best not
dwell on this too much for now so that we can at least make some
progress :)

Thanks. I'm guessing we should push this into drm-misc-next so
that you can pile your core/sand bits on top?
