I don't think that will solve the problem. The unmodified
drm_driver_legacy_fb_format() gives RG16 if it is asked for a 16 bit
depth (and the corresponding bpp in the way that the X server does) and
RG24 if asked for 24 bits. So swapping the bits around will always break
one of the hardware-supported depths unless you can cross/uncross the
wires dynamically when setting the frame buffer.
