Ville Syrjälä 5400b7eb66 drm/i915/casf: Integrate the sharpness filter properly into the scaler code
The sharpness filter is just a special mode of the pipe scaler.
It doesn't warrant all this special casing everywhere. Just
integrate it properly into the scaler code so that it's treated
no different from the other pipe scaler uses (scaling,centering,
YCbCr 4:2:0 output).

v2: Also reject scaling_filter vs. sharpness

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
* License: See COPYING

Documentation can be built with make htmldocs or viewed online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
