The samantics and types intentionally and precisely match what we
currently pass in through the set_plane ioctl. And yeah most drivers
can't do subpixel precise upscaling, but some hardware can do that. So
I don't see a point in changing the interface here.

I've implemented all the other stuff you've spotted.
