Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/3] drm/fourcc: Add missing big-endian XRGB1555 and RGB565 formats

  Hi,

For completeness: The other obvious option (for fbcon) would be to
handle the byteswapping in the generic drm fbdev emulation, which
would have the advantage that it would be more generic and would
not depend on the drm driver supporting the bigendian rgb565
formats ...

take care,
  Gerd
