It has been discussed before.

struct drm_dp_mst_topology_state {
	struct drm_private_state base;
	...
}

so offsetof(base)==0.

Wasn't aware of container_of_safe(). I suppose no real harm 
in using it. Not sure why we'd even keep the non-safe version
around?

Though the use of container_of_safe() everywhere won't help
when "casting" the other way (&foo->base, when foo==NULL/errptr).
In order to make that work for non-zero offsets we'd have to
introduce a casting macro for that direction as well.
