  *     DRM_FORMAT_MOD_LINEAR. Before linux kernel release v5.1 there have been

+ * SIZE_HINTS:
+ *     Blob property which contains the set of recommended plane size
+ *     which can used for simple "cursor like" use cases (eg. no scaling).
+ *     Using these hints frees userspace from extensive probing of
+ *     supported plane sizes through atomic/setcursor ioctls.
+ *
+ *     The blob contains an array of struct drm_plane_size_hint, in
+ *     order of preference. For optimal usage userspace should pick
+ *     the first size that satisfies its own requirements.
+ *
+ *     Drivers should only attach this property to planes that
+ *     support a very limited set of sizes.
+ *
+ *     Note that property value 0 (ie. no blob) is reserved for potential
+ *     future use. Current userspace is expected to ignore the property
+ *     if the value is 0, and fall back to some other means (eg.
+ *     &DRM_CAP_CURSOR_WIDTH and &DRM_CAP_CURSOR_HEIGHT) to determine
+ *     the appropriate plane size to use.
