As of commit eae06120f1974e1a ("drm: refuse ADDFB2 ioctl for broken
bigendian drivers"), drivers must set the
quirk_addfb_prefer_host_byte_order quirk to make the drm_mode_addfb()
compat code work correctly on big-endian machines.

While that works fine for big-endian XRGB8888 and ARGB8888, which are
mapped to the existing little-endian BGRX8888 and BGRA8888 formats, it
does not work for big-endian XRGB1555 and RGB565, as the latter are not
listed in the format database.

Fix this by adding the missing formats. Limit this to big-endian
platforms, as there is currently no need to support these formats on
little-endian platforms.

v2:
- Use "DRM_FORMAT_foo | DRM_FORMAT_BIG_ENDIAN" instead of
"DRM_FORMAT_HOST_foo",
- Turn into a lone patch, as all other patches from series
https://lore.kernel.org/r/cover.1657300532.git.geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
were applied to drm-misc/for-linux-next.

Getting back to the discussion on endianess, I don't understand why the BIG_ENDIAN flag is set here. AFAIK these formats are always little endian. And the BE flag is set by drivers/userspace if a framebuffer has a BE ordering.

It would be better to filter the BE flag in __drm_format_info() before the function does the lookup.

Best regards
