Hi Geert,

generally this looks fine to me though I'm not familiar with the
code. The thing I'm missing here is a more precise description of the
new pixel formats.

>  #define DRM_FORMAT_C8		fourcc_code('C', '8', ' ', ' ') /* [7:0] C */

This description of C8 is a little vague maybe, but presumably one
pixel being one byte, the address of pixel x is just &bytes[x].

C4, C2 and C1 should also specify the pixel order within the byte.
There is some precedent of that in with some YUV formats in this file. 

Maybe something like: 

C2 /* [7:0] c0:c1:c2:c3 2:2:2:2 four pixels per byte */

or the other way around, which ever your ordering is?


Thanks,
