Given that the _rrProvider structs are per-screen, any devPrivate stuff
could live in the screen private instead; otherwise, I'd suggest making
this a 'real' private structure, which seems like a pain.

Remove the typedef for RRProviderSetRoleProcPtr

(Hrm. Having NULL for SetProviderOffloadSink and SetProviderOutputSource
means returning BadRequest for those; I know they'll just be no-ops for
now, but this patch should probably have stubs that return BadMatch
instead? We'll let that slide though; bisecting across this probably
won't break any apps).

(Hrm, would also be nice if this patch created provider objects for the
screens so that we could test the protocol support here)

Otherwise, this patch is

Need to free 'name' when the screen is deleted.

There are bunch of spurious whitespace fixes in dix/pixmap.c

Fails to check DamageCreate return value for NULL

PixmapSyncDirtyHelper might be made faster by clipping to the
dirty_region instead of iterating over the boxes in it?

Setting SourceValidate to NULL is going to pick up the software cursor,
I assume this is intentional? A comment might be nice here. Of course,
a cleaner fix would be to just have the cursor code drive a cursor on
the monitor separately; that way, we'd get hw cursors on the 'main'
screen and only have a sw cursor on the output provider.

The rest of this patch is

Calling RRModesForScreen twice is ugly, but it's probably less code than
creating a separate function to compute the needed values.

It seems like rrGetMultiScreenResources would work fine for screens
without connected output providers. If so, please just replace the old
function instead of copying it. It'll get more testing that way anyways.

Not sure you need to mess with the RootClip of the current master screen
when disconnecting the output; you'll get a screen flash as a result.

Would be better to draw the cursor on the slave than have it rendered to
the master and copied to the slave? As you say, all providers can draw X stuff.
