Hmm. That could work, but feels a bit wrong. Would be nice if we could
always keep the watermarks totally consistent with the plane
configuration.

One thing we could do during init is simply calculate the optimal
watermarks for the current config and just blast them in. Then when
the first plane update/modeset happens the current state would
actually be sane wrt. the current plane config.
