Do we have userspace for this?

If we go with the existing quant range property you don't need new
userspace for the property itself. But this flag here is new uapi, so
needs userspace per

https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-uapi.html#open-source-userspace-requirements

Also since this standardizes kms uapi, we need testcases per

https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-uapi.html#testing-requirements-for-userspace-api

Cheers, Daniel
