Daniel,  I came across usage of GET_TILING in libdrm.
Is used in drm_intel_bo_gem_create_from_name() and drm_intel_bo_gem_create_from_prime().
Should these be updated so they don't fail when EOPNOTSUPP is returned on gen12+?
Maybe libdrm should just set tiling_mode to 0 on EOPNOTSUPP error instead of those calls failing?
