AFBC is arm vendor format, it's a compressed format.

The AFBC format is supported by rk3399 vop big.

We know little about AFBC layout, hope to some guys can
fixme about the afbc comment.

Do you have any details about the exact type of AFBC data you are
consuming here?

We need to agree what exactly a buffer with the modifier
"DRM_FORMAT_MOD_ARM_AFBC" means. For instance the block size, whether
the data has the YUV transform applied, how the data is laid out in
memory etc.

We (ARM) want to make sure that the format modifiers we expose to
userspace for AFBC are precise and non-ambiguous, cover all
possible AFBC modifiers (of which there are many, and the list can
only get longer) and all possible AFBC consuming/producing IPs'
requirements.

We had intended to delay adding any AFBC format modifiers to DRM until
we'd had this kind of discussion internally to agree the exact set
of modifiers we need, but if you need this now then we can start that 
discussion here.

Thanks,
Brian
