As previously reported against the v3, while I actually tested v4 ...

Cristian provided a helper script which would show a test pattern and
then iterate through setting Red, Green, Blue background color and then
set it back to the original value.

I first tested this on a Rock 5B (RK3588).
Without this patch set, the background color was Black with every
iteration. But with this patch set, I did see a Red, Green and Blue
background color, after which it was set back to Black.

diederik@...k5b:~$ grep -E "^Changing prop|^Read BACKGROUND_COLOR" bgcol-test-bash-user.log
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff000000000000
Changing prop value to: 0xffff00000000ffff
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff00000000ffff
Changing prop value to 0xffffffff00000000
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffffffff00000000
Changing prop value to 0xffff0000ffff0000
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff0000ffff0000
Changing prop value to 0xffff00000000ffff
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff00000000ffff
Changing prop value to: 0xffff000000000000
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff000000000000

I then did the same test on a Quartz64-B (RK3566) and that too showed a
Red, Green and Blue background color and then was set back to Black.

diederik@...rtz64b:~$ grep -E "^Changing prop|^Read BACKGROUND_COLOR" bgcol-test-bash-user-q64b.log
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff000000000000

Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff00000000ffff
Changing prop value to 0xffffffff00000000
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffffffff00000000

Changing prop value to: 0xffff000000000000
Read BACKGROUND_COLOR prop (ARGB64): 0xffff000000000000

So this patch set does what it is supposed to do, so feel free to add:
