Maybe we should just drop "actual color format" and instead fail the
modeset if the "preferred color format" property cannot be satisfied?
It seems like the simplest thing to do here, though it is perhaps less
convenient for userspace. In that case, the "preferred color format"
property should just be called "color format".
