Since commit 860e748bddcc ("drm: ensure blend mode supported if pixel
format with alpha exposed"), drm_mode_config_validate() warns when a
plane exposes an alpha pixel format but not the "pixel blend mode"
property. The cursor (ARGB8888, all platforms) and the VLV/CHV primary
and sprite planes trip this.

Userspace has historically assumed premultiplied blending when the
property is not attached, so it is safe to assume that planes that
did not expose the property already blended with fixed pre-multiplied
alpha in hardware. Therefore, expose a "pixel blend mode" property
advertising only DRM_MODE_BLEND_PREMULTI to match that assumption and
silence the warning. The cursor call is unconditional; the primary and
sprite calls are gated to VLV/CHV, the only platforms whose format lists
include alpha formats.
