Daniel Vetter 9e9f605fb5 drm/doc: Document that modifiers are always required for fb
Even for legacy userspace, since otherwise GETFB2 is broken and if you
switch between modifier-less and modifier-aware compositors, smooth
transitions break.

Also it's just best practice to make sure modifiers are invariant for
a given drm_fb, and that a modifier-aware kms drivers only has one
place to store them, ignoring any old implicit bo flags or whatever
else might float around.

Motivated by some irc discussion with Bas about amdgpu modifier
support.

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.
