Got that, I will add more details on the UAPI usage to make things a bit clearer.

The reason we have this Client caps is to have it co-exist with legacy crtc color properties.
The idea is that driver will describe the h/w luts to userspace through GAMMA_MODE UAPI,
but the actual lut samples will still be sent through the legacy GAMMA_LUT UAPI. This client
cap will help distinguish between legacy and this new implementation.

I will add more details in the UAPI description to avoid ambiguity and explain the rationale and
usage of this UAPI.

Thanks Pekka for the looking into the series and the initial feedback.
