Yeah, that sucker was in the modeset sequence patch set. I should've
pulled it out into a separate patch.

Some driver might want to use hardware cursor for fb_cursor, also some
drivers want to use planes for fbdev scanout, which as you know is
something I want for i915 as well in the future.

Also there's the whole state mismanagement. We don't track enough of
the state in the core to restore stuff properly, so if we disable
stuff, we can't re-enable it when switching back to the client using
sprites/planes. We could move the plane coordinate tracking to the
core easily enough (I even had a patch for that in some old atomic
branch). I haven't looked at out current cursor stuff closely enough
to figure out if we can do the same there, but currently the cursor
state is tracked purely inside the driver.

So for the short term I think it's easier to go with the new hook,
and let each driver manage their planes/cursors.

When we get to the atomic stuff, I'd like to keep a full state per
client, and then it'd be very easy to just blast the new state in when
swithing between clients.
