Besides sti and exynos, zpos is also already implemented in rcar, mdp5 
and omap
drivers. I'm not sure what should be done in case of omap, which uses 
this property
with different name ("zorder" instead of "zpos").

Okay.

Yes and no. fbdev will enable only one (primary) plane per crtc, so zpos 
set to
zero will be properly "normalized" and then interpreted by the driver. 
However
if no fbdev is used and the driver doesn't subclass drm_plane_state, then
drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset() should set it to some sane initial 
values (the
best would be to use initial values passed to 
drm_object_attach_property() on
plane initialization). The only problem is that I didn't find any good 
place to
store the initial zpos value. In case of exynos, drm_plane_state is 
subclassed,
so I can set it in my own exynos_drm_plane_reset() method.
