Ah, here it is, so much for reading patches strictly in-order ;-) One
small comment below, otherwise I think this looks good. Again review from
Gustavo for the out fences stuff would be really good (so pls cc him). And
I think some igt testcases to exercise all the corner-cases in here.

btw if you feel like adding a 2nd comment in-line like above, then that's
a clear signal that you should move your kerneldoc struct member comments
to the inline style. You can freely mix&match inline with top-level struct
member documentation, so no need to change them all. You also missed the
doc for out_fence_ptr, 0day won't like that.

writeback_ prefix for both imo, like in patch 1.

Should all have writeout_ prefix. And at that point I wonder a bit whether
we shouldn't just go ahead and create a struct drm_writeout_connector, to
keep this stuff nicely separate. Only change visible to drivers would be
the type of drm_writeback_connector_init, and they'd need to
allocate/embedd a different struct. Worth it imo.
