This seems like a good direction in general, so it's certainly with
proceeding with. I've applied the series to the fbdev/panning-fixes topic
branch, which I will subsequently merge so it's possible to get wider
coverage via -next.

Individual driver authors have had a few weeks to ack/nack accordingly,
so it's fairly reasonable to expect that you're not likely to be
collecting much more feedback before the whole thing gets merged anyways.

If it ends up horribly breaking a number of drivers then it's still
trivial to revert the branch merge and convert drivers incrementally, but
I don't expect that to really be a problem.
