Indeed, the description is perhaps a bit lacking. I'll change it to:

drm_format_info_bpp() cannot be used for formats which do not have an
integer bits-per-pixel in a pixel block.

E.g. DRM_FORMAT_XV15's (not yet in upstream) plane 0 has three 10-bit 
pixels (Y components), and two padding bits, in a 4 byte block. That is 
10.666... bits per pixel when considering the whole 4 byte block, which 
is what drm_format_info_bpp() does. Thus a driver that supports such 
formats cannot use drm_format_info_bpp(),

It is a driver bug if this happens, but so handle wrong calls by 
printing a warning and returning 0.
