Hi Javier, Jordan

Could you please explain what regression/issue you see with patch?

venus hardware supports QC08C which provides better performance hence 
driver is publishing it as preferred color format.

if client doesn't support this or want to use any other format, they can 
set the desired format with s_fmt.

Thanks,

Dikshita
