This is the offset on the crtc specifically (which could be displaying
a nonzero offset of a given fb).

These are the size of the rect on the crtc.  It's possible to have say
a small source fb that gets scaled to a different size on the crtc by
the plane blender or display hardware.

These specify the offset and size of the rect used for the source
area.  This allows the sprite hardware to send a subregion to the plane
blender for display on the crtc.

Yes.

Hope that helps; most of the above came out of earlier review comments
since some display hardware allows a lot of flexibility when displaying
overlay planes.
