+uint32_t drm_crtc_mask(struct drm_crtc *crtc)
+{
+       int i = drm_crtc_index(crtc);
+
+       return i < 0 ? 0 : 1 << i;
+}
+EXPORT_SYMBOL(drm_crtc_mask);

When drm_crtc_index() no longer returns negative numbers, this becomes:

+uint32_t drm_crtc_mask(struct drm_crtc *crtc)
+{
+       return 1 << drm_crtc_index(crtc);
+}
+EXPORT_SYMBOL(drm_crtc_mask);

Notice the conversion from an index returned by drm_crtc_index() to a
bitmask.
