This patch adds new structures in DRM layer for Palette color
correction.These structures will be used by user space agents
to configure appropriate number of samples and Palette LUT for
a platform.

It's not strictly required, but adding a __u32 reserved here to align the
struct to 64 bits seems good imo. Slight overhead but meh about that.
Humm, ok, we can check this out.

Definitely great practice to take compat into account and definitely
needed for the first design using ioctls but I don't think we need this
here. Properties are already extinsible themselves: We can just greate a
"ctm-v2", "ctm-v3" if the layout changes, and since the actual ctm matrix
is stored in the drm_crtc_state any compat code on the kernel will be
shared.

Aside: For an ioctl the recommended way to handle backwards compat and
extensions in drm is with a flags bitfield. That's more flexible than a
linear version field, and extending the ioctl struct at the end is already
handled by the drm core in a transparent fashion (it 0-fills either kernel
or userspace side).

Agree, we will drop this. Do you think we should add a flags field, or is it ok without it ?

blob properties already have a size, storing it again in the blob is
redundnant. Instead I think a small helper to get the number of samples
for a given gamma table blob would be needed.

Cheers, Daniel
Please note that they are different. One is the size of blob and other one is the num_samples supported by the property, in the current correction mode. If you check the design doc, num_sample serves the purpose of deciding which correction mode to be applied also. fox ex, for gamma, num_samples=0 indicates disable gamma, whereas num_samples=512 indicates split gamma mode.
