You can pass the same fb for multiple crtcs if you want to mirror.
Using an array of mode_crtcs would fix one problem though; the mode
array should be tied to the crtc, not the connector (i.e. you can't set
two different modes on two different connectors with only a single
crtc).

That's +3 now I think. :)  I'll try to figure out a way to add that...
