From: Hsiao Chien Sung <shawn.s...@mediatek.com>
The formula of Coverage alpha blending is:
dst.a = dst.a * (0xff - src.a * SCA / 0xff) / 0xff
+ src.a * SCA / 0xff
dst.a: destination alpha
src.a: pixel alpha
SCA : plane alpha
When SCA = 0xff, the formula becomes:
dst.a = dst.a * (0xff - src.a) + src.a
This patch is to set the destination alpha (background) to 0xff:
- When dst.a = 0 (before), dst.a = src.a
- When dst.a = 0xff (after) , dst.a = 0xff * (0xff - src.a) + src.a
According to the fomula above:
- When src.a = 0 , dst.a = 0
- When src.a = 0xff, dst.a = 0xff
This two cases are just still correct. But when src.a is
between 0 and 0xff, the difference starts to appear

to sub driver private data")
