drm_hwcomposer: Use DUMB buffer for modeset Now, as the LayerProperties struct accepts BufferInfo and BufferInfo can carry the RAII-wrapped dmabuf FD, it has become elementary to use dumb buffer for a modeset. There are two benefits compared to using the gralloc: 1. We aim to make the DRM composer backend Android-agnostic. 2. Not every gralloc may support mapping the HWFB buffer.
