I'd prefer to have all of the planes' zpos within the same range. By
default the other planes will be on the very bottom end of that range
and the atomic core will normalize the zpos for all planes anyway, so
the cursor plane will end up with a very small normalized zpos in the
end.

The zpos documentation already mentions that the behaviour is undefined
if two planes have the same zpos value, so I think userspace is going to
know how to set these anyway.

It might be worth to do a follow-up patch that is smarter about setting
the range of valid values. 0-255 is true on later chips where we
actually have a proper "layer depth" register field and I wanted this to
be uniform across all generations. Other drivers seem to set the upper
limit on the zpos range to be equal to the number of planes available,
so that there aren't potentially big gaps in the numbering. That said,
since the core already normalizes the zpos for us, I don't see a big
benefit in explicitly clipping the range.
