Oh also on the dimension thing, this is the tile size and has nothing to
do with the overall buffer size, right? Because the overall buffer size is
meant to be carried in separate metadata (like the drm_framebuffer
structure or ADDFB2 ioctl data). drm fourcc/modifier assume that height,
width, offset and stride are specified per plane already (unless the
auxiary plane has a fixed layout and is not tracked as a separate plane
for this format).

Yeah there's 8 bit vendor id, but you could reserve another 8 bit at the
top (so 48:55 or something like that) to enumerate within the synaptics
space. Just to future proof the schema, because experience says that hw
engineers absolutely do love to change this stuff eventually.
