Currently the property docs don't specify whether it's okay for two planes to have the same zpos value and what user-space should expect in this case. The rule mentionned in the past was to disambiguate with object IDs. However some drivers break this rule (that's why the ordering is documented as unspecified in case the zpos property is missing). Additionally it doesn't really make sense for a driver to user identical zpos values if it knows their relative position: the driver can just pick different values instead. So two solutions would make sense: either disallow completely identical zpos values for two different planes, either make the ordering unspecified. To allow drivers that don't know the relative ordering between two planes to still expose the zpos property, choose the latter solution.
