sway fails to initialize display

[jhalmen]

On sway master (& wlroots master) sway does not start up anymore for me.

sway.log

the important bits probably are:

[backend/drm/drm.c:708] Initializing renderer on connector 'eDP-1'
[backend/drm/util.c:210] Unable to add DRM framebuffer: Invalid argument
[backend/drm/drm.c:742] Page-flip failed with primary FB modifiers enabled, retrying without modifiers
[backend/drm/util.c:210] Unable to add DRM framebuffer: Invalid argument
[backend/drm/drm.c:751] Failed to initialize renderer on connector 'eDP-1': initial page-flip failed
[backend/drm/drm.c:834] Failed to initialize renderer for plane

I had been on stable for quite a while, but wanted to try out the many tablet/pen improvements that have recently come to sway.

Fixed in swaywm/wlroots#2141
