Maybe I'm misunderstanding your explanation, but a framebuffer is always required to fill/cover the plane scanning out of it. What this patch is supposed to be allowing is for the primary plane to not cover the entire CRTC (since that's something that only became possible for Intel hardware on the gen9+ platforms). I.e., the primary plane is now allowed to positioned and resized to cover a subset of the CRTC area, just like "sprite" planes have always been able to. If you've got a 1080x1080 framebuffer, then it's legal to have a 1080x1080 primary plane while running in 1920x1080 mode on SKL/BXT. However it is not legal to size the primary plane as 1920x1080 and use this same 1080x1080 framebuffer with any of our interfaces (setplane, setcrtc, pageflip, or atomic). Are you using ioctls/libdrm directly or are you using igt_kms helpers? IIRC, the IGT helpers will try to be extra helpful and automatically size the plane to match the framebuffer (unless you override that behavior), so that might be what's causing the confusion here.
