[PATCH 01/10] drm/drm_crtc: Introduce sharpness strength property

[G M, Adarsh]

Hi,

I have tested this patch series (rev 16) with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/7689, uApi works well. The sharpness is applied and the changes are seen immediately and relative to the change in user input (Strength).

Tested-by: Adarsh G M <Adarsh.g.m at intel.com>

Warm regards,
Adarsh G M

Subject: [PATCH 01/10] drm/drm_crtc: Introduce sharpness strength property

Introduce a new crtc property "SHARPNESS_STRENGTH" that allows the user to set the intensity so as to get the sharpness effect.
The value of this property can be set from 0-255.
It is useful in scenario when the output is blurry and user want to sharpen the pixels. User can increase/decrease the sharpness level depending on the content displayed.

v2: Rename crtc property variable [Arun]
    Add modeset detail in uapi doc[Uma]
v3: Fix build issue
v4: Modify the subject line[Ankit]
