That tends to reflect my thinking when I wrote the colorop stuff. > That said, I do have a concern about potentially inflating the atomic > state by automatically pulling in colorops from the core.

It won't be an issue for amdgpu since we have another level of state tracking, but for drivers that strictly follow the atomic model it might lead to issues. On the other hand it makes colorop handling less error-prone in amdgpu, and possibly fixes a bug I've come across where we get confused if an active colorop isn't part of the state.
