Hi,

I'm get attracted by your patch, so I want to comment.
Please correct or ignore me if I say something wrong.

This was initialy done for imx6, but should work on most drivers
using drm_fb_dma_helper.

v8:
  * Replace get_scanout_buffer() logic with drm_panic_set_buffer()
    (Thomas Zimmermann)

v9:
  * go back to get_scanout_buffer()
  * move get_scanout_buffer() to plane helper functions

I think, the framebuffer format check clause here should be moved to the core layer.
For example, move this check into thedrm_panic_is_format_supported() function. And update the drm_panic_is_format_supported() function to make it take 'struct drm_framebuffer *fb'
as argument. Because this check is needed for all implement, not driver specific or
implement specific.

I know that some display controller support TILE format, but then you can try to trigger modeset
to let the display controller using linear format to display. Or, you can also convert local
linear buffer(with content pained) to the device specific TILED framebuffer, then feed TILED
framebuffer to the display controller to scanout. This is something like reverse the process of
resolve, but the convert program is running on the CPU.  As panic is not performance critical,
so it's possible. This maybe a bit more difficult, but the idea behind this is that the goal of
this drm_panic_gem_get_scanout_buffer() function is just to get a buffer scanout-able. Other
things beyond that (like format checking) can be moved to upper level(the caller of it). So you
don't need to modify(update) the specific implement if one day you have some fancy idea implemented.

How about to call drm_gem_vmap_unlocked(dma_obj, &sb->map); ?
