[PATCH] drm: Introduce RGB 64-bit 16:16:16:16 float format

From: Tina Zhang
Date: Thu Nov 23 2017 - 04:03:23 EST


The RGB 64-bit 16:16:16:16 float pixel format is needed by some Apps in
windows. The float format in each component is 1:5:10 MSb-sign:exponent:
fraction.

This patch is to introduce the format to drm, so that the windows guest's
framebuffer in this kind of format can be recognized and used by linux
host.

v14:
- add some details about the float pixel format. (Daniel)
- add F suffix to the defined name. (Daniel)

v12:
- send to dri-devel at lists.freedesktop.org. (Ville)

v9:
- separated from framebuffer decoder patch. (Zhenyu) (Xiaoguang)
