The series does some great work, with future work reaching the cache
line for 64bit.
Doing much more than that might be an overkill IMHO.

In particular, if we change DRM_DISPLAY_MODE_LEN to 24 we get there,
avoiding the heap alloc/calc on demand fun.
While also ensuring the name is sufficiently large for the next decade or so.

>From drm_mode_set_name():

snprintf(mode->name, DRM_DISPLAY_MODE_LEN, "%dx%d%s",
    mode->hdisplay, mode->vdisplay, interlaced ? "i" : "");


We change the h/v display from (10^15)-1 to (10^11)-1 which seems reasonable.

Note: haven't checked if name includes the terminating \0, so take
numbers with a grain of salt.
