Virtualization - Nov 2022 - [PATCH 5/7] drm/simpledrm: Set preferred depth from format of scanout buffer

A number of drivers mix up the meaning of bits-per-pixel and color
depth. For each of them, set the correct values. As a rule of thumb,
the color depth is the number of color and alpha bits that affect
image composition. The bpp value is the color depth in the pixel
plus the filler bits.

The color depth is exported to userspace, while the bpp value only
affects fbdev emulation. Currently, fbdev fails if it selects a color
format that is unsupported by the driver. The fix would be to fall
back to a driver default value for the bpp. Getting the default fixed
in drivers will then allow us to fix the fbdev format selection.

Set the preferred color depth to 24 bits and the fbdev bpp to 32
bits. This will signal XRGB8888 as default format to clients.

Logicvc can have different values for the preferred color depth. Set
the fbdev bpp value depending on the runtime value.

Cirrus has a preferred color depth of 16 bit; also use it as fbdev
bpp value. Don't use the color depth directly. It has a different
meaning than bpp and both cannot be used interchangeably.

Set the preferred depth from the format of the scanout buffer. The
value cannot be hardcoded, as the scanout buffer's is only known at
runtime. Keeping the existing switch statement just duplicates the
driver's existing logic for format detection.

Also remove the FIXME comment from the call to drm_fbdev_generic_setup()
as the driver now handles color depth and bpp values correctly.

If no preferred value for bits-per-pixel has been given, fall back
to 32. Never use the preferred depth. The color depth is the number
of color/alpha bits per pixel, while bpp is the overall number of
bits in most cases.

Most noteworthy, XRGB8888 has a depth of 24 and a bpp value of 32.
Using depth for bpp would make the value 24 as well and format
selection in fbdev helpers fails. Unfortunately XRGB8888 is the most
common format and the old heuristic therefore fails for most of
the drivers (unless they implement the 24-bit RGB888 format).

Picking a bpp of 32 will lateron result in a default depth of 24
and the format XRGB8888. As XRGB8888 is the default format for most
of the current and legacy graphics stack, all drivers must support
it. So it is the safe choice.
