I deleted this comment since I think it's misleading: We only need depth
to decided for the pixel format when userspace hasn't filled it out. We
could also change the function to instead pass fb->format, and use that as
the key to fill out the fbdev format information. That's why I requested
you keep Ville's change here, it was a bugfix.

So ther's no guessing going on here at all, and nothing else fancy: All we
do is fill out the fbdev pixel format information if userspace failed to
supply it. That's imo clear enough without a comment.

Applied both comments for 5.0 drm-misc-fixes, thanks a lot for your
patches and debug work.

Cheers, Daniel
