Hi Tobias,

In some of subdrivers we compute something like 'pitch / cpp' at some

divisible by the buffer's cpp. This must not be true, in particular
it depends on the underlying hardware.

If userspace should request such a setup, we should communicate this.

Introduce a new cap which indicates that the hardware supports a
pitch with 'byte-granularity'. If the cap is not set, assume that
we need a pitch aligned to cpp.

We set this cap in a later patch for the drivers/planes which
support it.

I briefly checked the patch and it looks fine, but I really wonder whether
drivers should support such strange formats, when pitches are not multiple
of pixel size in bytes. I cannot find any sane use case for such formats.

Maybe it would make sense to add a check for it in DRM core? I also didn't
notice a check for that in any other drivers, but some of them also
compute 'pitch / cpp' values.
