[PATCH v4 4/4] RFC: drm/sun4i: Process alpha channel of most bottom layer

[Roman Stratiienko]

Allwinner display engine blender consists of 3 pipelined blending units.

PIPE0->\
        BLD0-\
PIPE1->/      BLD1-\
PIPE2->------/      BLD2->OUT
PIPE3->------------/

This pipeline produces incorrect composition if PIPE0 buffer has alpha.
Correct solution is to add one more blending step and mix PIPE0 with
background, but it is not supported by the hardware.

Use premultiplied alpha buffer of PIPE0 overlay channel as is.
In this case we got same effect as mixing PIPE0 with black background.
