I've been pointed to
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/merge_requests/3350#note_1161827,
and we had a discussion on the #dri-devel IRC channel today on this
topic. It turns out I was wrong, not specifying modifiers in userspace
is different than specifying a linear modifier. This is true for some
legacy drivers only (e.g. radeon) that pre-date the modifiers API, and
which select a tiling format internally based on some heuristics.

I still don't like this patch though, as it would need to be replicated
in most drivers. It would be better if we could handle this in the DRM
core. Daniel kindly offered to summarize the IRC discussion in a reply
to this e-mail.
