This doesn't make much sense, the cursor overlay is really just a hint
for legacy ioctls that this is the overlay that should be used for
cursors. Compositors should try to use such planes as full overlays
(if they don't want to use them as a cursor). So sounds like a case of
"fix your compositor".

For atomic there's 0 difference between a overlay or a cursor (primary
plane is still treated somewhat special in the RMFB ioctl, but again
that's for backwards compat reasons with existing uapi, not because
the primary plane is different).

What does happen though is that this breaks cursor for legacy
userspace, which is probably not really what you want.
