Previously modifiers have been added in a separate patch CC'd to
dri-devel (and that patch needs to be before the one starting to use
it) and then merged via the i915 tree only after getting an ACK for this
from Jani or Danvet.

The modifier will be exposed to userspace only after the second
one, so I don't see a problem with that approach.

Either way the patchset looks ok to me:
