Uh no.

These enums are maintained in drm_fourcc.h, by drm maintainers. You
_cannot_ mix them up with the fourcc enums that video4linux2.h has, that's
a completely different enum space because fourcc codes are _not_ a
standard.

Please do not ever mix up drm_fourcc format modifiers with v4l2 fourcc
codes, that will result in complete chaos. There's a reason why there's
only one authoritative source for these.

Please include the link to that MR in the patch description.
