That states the overlay has gone away. I do know the Window Vista
eliminates the overlay programming model in lieu of compositing. Other
graphics hardware will loose the overlay function in the future.
I don't know what the XV structure requires, but HW scaling is not limited
to overlay support. It can be in a different place in the pipe.
