Add support to convert XR24 and 8-bit grayscale to reversed monochrome for
drivers that control monochromatic panels, that only have 1 bit per pixel.

The drm_fb_gray8_to_mono_reversed() helper was based on the function that
does the same in the drivers/gpu/drm/tiny/repaper.c driver.

In practice, all mode widths are multiples of 8 because VGA mandated it. So it's ok-ish to assume this here. You should probably at least print a warning somewhere if (pixels % 8 != 0)

There's a bug here. You want to pass in a drm_framebuffer as fourth argument.

+{
+
+ size_t height = drm_rect_height(clip);
+ size_t width = drm_rect_width(clip);
+ unsigned int y;
+ const u8 *gray8 = src;
+ u8 *mono = dst;
+
+ if (!dst_pitch)
+ dst_pitch = width;

The dst_pitch is given in bytes. You have to device by 8. Here would be a good place to warn if (width % 8 != 0).

+
+ for (y = 0; y < height; y++) {
+ drm_fb_gray8_to_mono_reversed_line(mono, gray8, dst_pitch);
+ mono += (dst_pitch / 8);

The dst_pitch is already given in bytes.

+ gray8 += dst_pitch;

'gray8 += fb->pitches[0]' would be correct.

+ }
+}

Converting from dst into dst can give incorrect results. At some point we probably want to add restrict qualifiers to these pointers, to help the compiler with optimizing.

A better approach here is to pull the per-line conversion from drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_gray8() into a separate helper and implement a line-by-line conversion here. something like this:

drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_mono_reversed()
{
char *tmp = kmalloc(size of a single line of gray8)

for (heigth) {
drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_gray8_line(tmp, ..., src, ...);
drm_fb_gray8_to_mono_reversed(dst, ..., tmp, ...);

src += fb->pitches[0]
dst += dst_pitch;
}

kfree(tmp);
}
