A plane's ->atomic_check() hook can be called with TEST_ONLY to figure out from
userspace if the given configuration is a valid one that can be accepted by
the hardware. There should be no error if the plane will not be visible, as we
are not programming anything yet.

I would also argue that the test that you remove and replace with state->visible
is important. We can't do *any* scaling, while with your patch we could accept
src_w != crtc_w as long as it is visible. Hardware is not capable of handling that.

Best regards,
Liviu
