The introduction of primary planes has apparently caused a bit of fb refcounting fun for people. That makes it a good time to clean up the arcane rules and slight differences between ->update_plane and ->set_config. The new rules are: - The core holds a reference for both the new and the old fb (if they're non-NULL of course) while calling into the driver through either ->update_plane or ->set_config. - Drivers may not clobber plane->fb if their callback fails. If they do that, they need to store a pointer to the old fb in it again. When calling into the driver plane->fb still points at the current (old) framebuffer. - The core will update the plane->fb pointer on success. Drivers can do that themselves too, but aren't required to any more for the primary plane. - The core will update fb refcounts for the plane->fb pointer, presuming the drivers hold up their end of the bargain. v2: Remove now unused tmpfb (Thierry) v3: Drop broken changes from drm_mode_setplane (Ville). Also polish the commit message a bit.
