Currently drm_client_buffer_addfb() uses the legacy drm_mode_addfb(), which uses bpp and depth to guess the wanted buffer format. However, drm_client_buffer_addfb() already knows the exact buffer format, so there is no need to convert back and forth between buffer format and bpp/depth, and the function can just call drm_mode_addfb2() directly instead.

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.
