There are two problems currently:
- Destination colorkey is not implemented on BYT/CHV. I have
  patches for it but they have not been reviewed by anyone:
  https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/43902/
- Colorkey can only be set via a custom i915 specific ioctl
  (DRM_I915_SET_SPRITE_COLORKEY). There have been a few attempts at
  a generic property based API that never really went anywhere. It's
  a rather difficult problem making this generic as each hardware has
  its own peculiar way of specifying colorkeying. The main problem
  with the custom ioctl is that it's not atomic with other screen
  updates.

So, what kind of use case do you have in mind?
