Actually the HLCDC is responsible for converting input format (either
RGB or YUV) to output format (one of the four supported RGB formats).

AFAICT, the HLCDC always converts the input format in RGB888 and then
only use the relevant bits (i.e. if the output is RGB565, it will only
takes MSB for each color).

The REP field (available in all layer, e.g. LCDC_BASECFG4 for the base
layer) is here to tell how the HLCDC should expand to 24 bits format.

All this means that we don't have to bother about input to output format
conversion.
