[PATCH v3 08/10] drm/fourcc: Clarify the meaning of single-channel "red"

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org>
Date: 2022-07-08 18:21:46
Also in: dri-devel, linux-m68k, lkml
Subsystem: drm drivers, drm drivers and misc gpu patches, the rest · Maintainers: David Airlie, Simona Vetter, Maarten Lankhorst, Maxime Ripard, Thomas Zimmermann, Linus Torvalds

Traditionally, the first channel has been called the "red" channel, but
the fourcc values for single-channel "red" formats can also be used for
other single-channel formats with a direct relationship between channel
value and brightness, like grayscale.
