When drivers pass non-empty lists of modifiers for initializing their planes, we can infer that they allow framebuffer modifiers and set the driver's allow_fb_modifiers mode config element. In case the allow_fb_modifiers element was not set (some drivers tend to set them after registering planes), the modifiers will still be registered but won't be available to userspace unless the flag is set later. However in that case, the IN_FORMATS blob won't be created. In order to avoid this case and generally reduce the trouble associated with the flag, always set allow_fb_modifiers when a non-empty list of format modifiers is passed at plane init.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
