Use drm_format_info_min_pitch() to calculate the framebuffer line pitch
instead of directly multiplying width and height. This aligns with DRM
helpers for determining per-line byte size and avoids manual assumptions
about bytes per pixel.

This is the wrong format. You're allocating the output buffer here, but you're using the input format. IIUC the output format is DRM_FORMAT_R1. The input is _XRGB8888.

And TBH I'm not sure if we should really convert this call. It's not an array in the sense of that API.

Good candidates look like 'kmalloc(count * sizeof(<some type or variable>))'

I will leave kmalloc in v3. Do you want me to send deep testing information on this patch?
