Together with [1], this patch allows me to run unpatched modifier-aware
user-space successfully, without a cursor visual glitch. drm_info
correctly reports the new modifier list, and wlroots logs confirm that
a flavor of NVIDIA_BLOCK_LINEAR_2D is used for the primary buffers and
LINEAR is used for cursor buffers.
Code looks good to me as well.
