Ok sprinkled a few smaller comments over a few patches, looks good overall
I think. And we discussed a bunch of the more tricky bits already in a 1:1
code walkthrough.

A few high-level bits:
- When splitting up patches pls dont make patches which just add
  functions/structs without using them. That makes it a lot harder to
  understand the big picture. The only exception is register #defines
  since reviewing those against Bspec can be done mostly independently of
  the code. So for functions make sure you have at least 1 use-site so
  that it's clear what it does. For structures just start out with the
  basic structure, then add members as you start using them.

  Since this amounts to a full rewrite of the patch series and this one
  here isn't too tricky I think it's ok to not do that here. But please
  follow this bkm for the next one.

- Testcase: We definitely don't have testcases for primary plane scaling
  (and panning fwiw), and iirc we also don't have any function testcases
  for sprite scaling.

- Testcases 2: I think we're also missing tests for the crtc pfit stuff.
  I think it'd be good to exercise the various resolutions and different
  boxing modes supported. I don't think we can do a full functional
  testcase here with crc.

- Unfortunately we can't yet test the sharing logic fully due to lack of
  atomic. But that's an open that we need to address once atomic has
  landed. Especially to make sure that extreme cases (e.g. all scalers
  used by planes <-> pfit enabled) work correctly.

Overall I think this is ready for detailed review. Since we lack igts I
recommend that the reviewer also does the igt coverage, that's a good way
to make sure all issues are caught.

Thanks, Daniel
