non-good things.. basically as part of re-working the
omapdss<->omapdrm stuff, I'll have a good point in omapdrm before
setting GO bit(s) where I can calculate the actual z-order from that
is set from userspace.  If two planes had same z-order from userspace,
omapdrm would simply put one in front of the other.  If the planes
aren't overlapping, this is fine.

I was thinking about this, but then you run into the same issue if you
move a plane from one CRTC to another without userspace setting the
property again.  In the end if userspace is ambiguous the driver has
to just arbitrarily pick some z-order to keep the hw happy.
