It's got nothing to do with the > "possible_clones" field as that isn't a mask of CRTCs. At least intel's copy of intel_crtc_encoder_ok() can be updated, too. But they don't depend on the crtc_helpers so we'd have to move your small helper into drm_crtc.c (which is fine to me as it is not limited to the DRM-crtc-helpers). possible_clones is about encoders, you're right, I missed that. So you can carry it in your series just fine.
