The goal with this series is to add support for 2bit grayscale with
the xrgb8888 pixel format for the st7571 display controller.

The first patch only corrects a comment of the pixel format.

The next two patches adds support for inverting pixels. This is
necessary as the connected display may or may not use the "right" (0 =>
black, 1 => white) pixel format expected by the supported formats
(R1/R2/XRGB8888).

The forth patch adds a helper function (drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_gray2) to
convert xrgb8888 to gray2.
drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_mono() has been changed splitted into two functions
where the common part is used by both drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_mono and
drm_fb_xrgb8888_to_gray2.

The last path adds support for gray2 in the st7571 driver.
Compare the mono [1] and the gray2 [2] variants of our penguin.
