DRM_FORMAT_NV15 is a 2 plane format suitable for linear and 16x16
block-linear memory layouts (DRM_FORMAT_MOD_SAMSUNG_16_16_TILE). The
format is similar to P010 with 4:2:0 sub-sampling but has no padding
between components. Instead, luminance and chrominance samples are
grouped into 4s so that each group is packed into an integer number
of bytes:
YYYY = UVUV = 4 * 10 bits = 40 bits = 5 bytes
The '15' suffix refers to the optimum effective bits per pixel which is
achieved when the total number of luminance samples is a multiple of 8.
Q410 and Q401 are both 3 plane non-subsampled formats with 16 bits per
component, but only 10 bits are used and 6 are padded. 'Q' is chosen
as the first letter to denote 3 plane YUV444, (and is the next letter
along from P which is usually 2 plane).
V2: Updated block_w of NV15 to {4, 2, 0}

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.
