Hm I missed that, I don't think that's good, since it prevents
userspace from blindly writing back the properties it's read. We've
tried hard to avoid that, since we're suggesting compositor can take a
snapshot of all kms properties (including the ones they don't
understand) and restore that on vt switching. Hence stuff like fence
fds returning -1, and accepting -1 as NULL to make this work.

tldr; I think range needs to include 0, and we need make that a
special thing, maybe enforced with a
drm_connector_state_compute_writeback_dst_h/w, which takes
crtc_state->mode.v/hdisplay into account if the writeback_dst_h/w is
0.
