That's the kernel patch(es)? It looks like I did receive them via
dri-devel, and Ayan was Cc'd on two of the series', but it's
disingenuous to say they had "a few Arm devs".

I first submitted this patch with Y410 to dri-devel back in August,
and since then it's been sent 8 times by my count (with you on Cc on
all of them!), and all have been similarly completely ignored; so I'm
sorry but I don't think you can put the blame entirely with Arm here.

So what do you suggest? Can we change it, or we need to forever live
with divergent definitions in DRM vs elsewhere?

Gstreamer appears to have a Y410 definition including alpha[1], and
there's the aforementioned Microsoft page too.

To me it looks like we should change DRM, and if your HW supports
something that's "almost but not quite" Y410 then you need a different
name or only allow alpha-blend-mode "none".
