So the enum values are still used, but yes, the type here shifts.

So the intent is to be able to share the kirin_format structure
between both the kirin620 support and kirin960, where as the
ade_fb_format enum values are tied to the kirin620, the kirin960 has
dpe_fb_formats enum which has different values. So the u32 hw_format
value is just the generic storage for enumerated format types of
either device. So its just a map from generic pixel_format definition
-> hardware specific value for that format.

I'll try to make that change more clear in the commit message, but if
you have ideas for a simpler or cleaner way to do the same, let me
know.

thanks
