Hi Gerd,

Some consultation would be appreciated on this thread to get this patch
out of limbo.  Is there a better solution that what I've proposed?
AFAICT, we don't have position fields to indicate the dmabuf plane is
relative to some scanout, so I think it represents the entire display.
Thanks,

Alex
