In the interest of making myself unpopular: Why move this out of drm?
We do have a bunch of other such shared helpers already (mostly in
drivers/video) for dt videomode and hdmi infoframes, and I'm not super
sure that's going better than keeping it maintained in drm.
Plus the uapi is already that you include drm_fourcc.h to get at these,
dropping the drm prefix isn't going to help I think.
Of course we'd need to make it a separate drm_formats.ko (so that v4l can
use it without dragging in all of drm), and we need to add some fields for
converting to v4l fourcc codes (which are different). But that should be
all possible. And I don't think the drm_ prefix in v4l code is a problem,
it's actually a feature: It makes it really clear that these are the drm
fourcc codes, as allocated in drm_fourcc.h, plus their modifiers, and all
that. That allocation authority is also already baked into various khr/ext
standards, too.
Ofc it'll perpetuate the joke that drm has no meaning anymore as an
abbrevation, but oh welp :-)
