Hi Adam,

Could you print out the "fmt", "state->base.fb->format-
>has_alpha", "state->base.alpha" and "con" here?

pr_info("fmt:0x%x, has_alpha:0x%x, alpha:0x%x, con:0x%x \n",
fmt, state->base.fb->format->has_alpha,
state->base.alpha, con);

I'm not sure if it's the color format setting problem, maybe there is
something wire configuration here, such as XRGB8888 with alpha or
ARGB8888 without alpha.

So I want these information to compare with my MT8188. Thanks!
