As said in the review for v1, this is not enough for generic userspace.

If drmModeAddFB2WithModifiers() fails, userspace knows that the buffer
can never work in that configuration, and it should fall back. If
drmModeAtomicCommit(DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_TEST_ONLY) fails, userspace does
not know that the buffer can _never_ work, because the failure may be
transient or due to a combination of things.

Returning the more localised error saves userspace a lot of work and
enables a more optimal system.

Cheers,
Daniel
