Well, to answer this question, lets consider two cases:

1) If we are talking about only the encoder having a valid fb as the 
criteria for validity, and lets say there are two encoders one having 
valid fb and the other not having one. This is not possible.
We map the same fb which is passed from the prepare_wb_job to both the 
physical encoders today so such a case wont happen.

2) In future, if we extend this valid check for other cases like you are 
suggesting here, even in that case, lets say we have two physical 
encoders, one master and the other slave. Even if one of them is 
invalid, the frame is invalid in my opinion as it will end up displaying 
corruption on the screen.

I dont think we are missing any other case here.

IF we just consider these two, then perhaps current approach is good 
enough with just the renaming ofcourse from dpu_encoder_has_valid_fb 
---> dpu_encoder_is_valid_for_commit()
