Aside, would be really lovely if someone who cares about these fbdev details would start to with some unit tests in the drm testsuite: https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-uapi.html?highlight=igt#testing-and-validation The drm version is gearing up to be _the_ fbdev implementation, that way we could make sure it wont break (e.g. intel gfx CI would run this stuff if it's in igt).

When userspace requests a video mode parameter value that is not supported, frame buffer device drivers should round it up to a supported value, if possible, instead of just rejecting it. This allows applications to quickly scan for supported video modes. Currently this rule is not followed for the number of bits per pixel, causing e.g. "fbset -depth N" to fail, if N is smaller than the current number of bits per pixel. Fix this by returning an error only if bits per pixel is too large, and setting it to the current value otherwise. See also Documentation/fb/framebuffer.rst, Section 2 (Programmer's View of /dev/fb*").
