Patch Review
> +#define UNORM_16BIT_ONE (1ULL << 16)
Pekka Paalanen's review comment on the mailing list is correct here. The UNORM-16 representation of 1.0 is `(2^n - 1)` where n=16, which is `0xffff = 65535`, not `(1 << 16) = 65536`. The value 65536 doesn't even fit in a u16. This should be `0xffffULL` instead.
In practice the off-by-one (65536 vs 65535) will produce a very small error -- at most ~1 LSB in the final result -- so the tests probably still pass with either value. But mathematically and by UNORM convention, this is wrong.

The comment is helpful but uses the word "idempotent element" when the correct term would be "multiplicative identity" (or simply "the value 1.0 in UNORM representation"). "Idempotent" means `f(f(x)) = f(x)`, which is a different concept. Minor nit, but worth correcting since the comment is trying to explain the mathematical reasoning.

The fix itself is structurally correct. The offset terms need to be multiplied by the pixel-scale representation of 1.0, matching how the other matrix coefficients are multiplied against `r`, `g`, `b` (which are also pixel-scale integers converted via `drm_int2fixp()`). Before the fix, the offset was just `drm_sm2fixp(matrix->matrix[3])`, which left it as a raw S31.32 fixed-point value without the pixel scaling -- effectively treating it as if pixel values were normalized to [0.0, 1.0] rather than [0, 65535].
The same fix is applied consistently to all three rows (rf, gf, bf), which is correct.
The commit message could benefit from a Fixes: tag since this is a bugfix to existing code.
