I'd just like to point out that if numerical values of these enums are your
concern, then you're (or perhaps I am ;) already breaking this by adding new
modes in patch 33/41 in this series.

And the values (and names!) added by that patch (33/41) don't match those
currently used by the downstream version
(https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/blob/rpi-5.15.y/drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_vec.c).
If any userspace software is manipulating this property, it's most likely
targeting the downstream code. But since you're not aiming for consistency with
that, I was under the impression that compatibility isn't a concern.

Best regards,
Mateusz Kwiatkowski
