To human readers

"array of struct drm_format modifiers" is almost indistinguishable from
"array of struct drm_format_modifiers", especially given that
struct drm_format_modifier does exist.

And indeed the parameter passes an array of uint64_t rather than an array
of structs, but the first words of the comment suggest that it passes
an array of structs.

The commit message is always for human readers, no need to point that

..but this paragraph still manages to 100% confuse this particular human.

The actual code changes lgtm, so with the commit message reworded
this patch is

There's an underscore instead of a space on the second line
(s/drm_format modifiers/drm_format_modifiers/).

It should definitely be reworded to be much clearer.
