+Subject: [PATCH] drm/virtio: add ARGB8888 support for primary planes
+
+Add DRM_FORMAT_HOST_ARGB8888 to the list of supported formats for
+virtio-gpu primary planes. Without this, glmark2-drm fails at
+startup because it selects ARGB visual configs by default, which
+don't match the XRGB-only plane capabilities. This causes
+drmModeSetCrtc to fail with EINVAL.
+
+The virtio_gpu_translate_format() function already handles
+ARGB8888 translation to VIRTIO_GPU_FORMAT_B8G8R8A8_UNORM,
+so this just exposes the existing capability to userspace.
