[PATCH] drm: Auto-set allow_fb_modifiers when given modifiers at plane init

From: Paul Kocialkowski
Date: Fri Jan 04 2019 - 04:00:44 EST


When drivers pass non-empty lists of modifiers for initializing their
planes, we can infer that they allow framebuffer modifiers and set the
driver's allow_fb_modifiers mode config element.

In case the allow_fb_modifiers element was not set (some drivers tend
to set them after registering planes), the modifiers will still be
registered but won't be available to userspace unless the flag is set
later. However in that case, the IN_FORMATS blob won't be created.

In order to avoid this case and generally reduce the trouble associated
with the flag, always set allow_fb_modifiers when a non-empty list of
format modifiers is passed at plane init.
