Hmmm, mode_valid_path, mode_valid_components ?

Ok. You said you let users exceed the limits, but why doesn't it
fail in atomic_check and will fail in mode_valid? I guess I can
remove it, but this can lead to lots of confusion, i.e. with this
series the mode_valid callbacks for all components are called, if
I remove just one call the whole point will fall apart.

Can we think about something else ? I think making it opt-in is
not ideal, if the helper is there then it should be used, but if
thats the best solution then shall we add a flag which will call
or not *all* the mode_valid callbacks in this stage
(drm_device.allow_modevalid_call, ...) ?

Yes, no point in checking if the mode and connector didn't change.

Yeah, this was to avoid the next function call to exceed 80
chars, I don't really like line breaks :) Thanks for the review!
