We have code in at least cirrus, ast and mgag200 to support this. And
userspace has been behaving like this since at least when I got involved
(2017).

It's also part of the software rendering. It is not a bug, but
implemented deliberately in one of the userspace components that
allocates framebuffers (but I cannot remember which one.)
