From ad25d0736db00afb2c7bf355bc50437434325387 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Kocialkowski Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2018 10:24:35 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] drm/sun4i: Add TODO comment about supporting scaling with the backend The backend allows integer-only scaling but can handle alpha components, unlike the frontend. It could be useful to add support for this eventually, so add a short TODO comment describing the situation.
