Hello Thomas,
Thanks a lot for your feedback.

end_offset should be called end_len, because it is the number of bits in
the final byte; but not the offset of the final bit.
Indeed.

Do you really need that function. It's not exported and if it's not
otherwise used, I'd just remove it. We don't keep unused interfaces around.
At the end after your suggestion of doing line-per-line conversions it is not
needed, but since I already typed it and we were talking about adding other
formats besides the fake XRGB8888 as an optimization (R8 for grayscale and
Dx or something like that for reversed mono), I thought that would be useful
to have it as a helper.
Also other drivers that want to advertise a R8 format could just use it and
not having to add their own helper. But I'm happy to drop it in v4 if you
think that's better to not have unused helpers.
It could be taken from this patch-set anyways if someone wants to wire the
needed support for R8.

I'd do a warn_once if (dst_pitch % 8 != 0).
Agreed. I'll add a warning an mention that will be rounded up.

I once had a patchset that adds caching information to struct
dma_buf_map (soon to be named struct iosys_map). Blitting helpers would
be able to enable/disable this optimization as needed.
However, your driver doesn't use CMA. It's backed by SHMEM. Do you
really want to keep that code in?
It doesn't but the repaper does. And since the plan was to make that driver
to use the helper instead of having their own, I wanted to also make sure
that would work well with CMA.

If might be faster to allocate both buffers in one step and set the
pointers into the allocated buffer.
Not sure I got this. Do you mean to have a single buffer with length
linepixels + len_src32 and point src32 and gray8 to the same buffer ?

end_len, again. If you have 1 single bit set in the final byte, the
offset is 0, but the length is 1.
Agreed, will change it too.
