Looking at the code:
static ssize_t manager_alpha_blending_enabled_show(
struct omap_overlay_manager *mgr, char *buf)
{
struct omap_overlay_manager_info info;
mgr->get_manager_info(mgr, &info);
WARN_ON(!dss_has_feature(FEAT_ALPHA_FIXED_ZORDER));

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Jan 1 00:01 manager1/alpha_blending_enabled
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Jan 1 00:01 manager2/alpha_blending_enabled
So, any program in userspace can open this sysfs file and on read cause
the kernel to print a warning and taint itself if there is no ZORDER
feature? This is not good kernel programming guys. Please audit your
other sysfs files for this bug, thanks.
