Looks good. A few comments below, but the big thing is adding kerneldoc
and cross-referencing it (e.g. from drm_panel to drm_panel_connector).

I think this would be useful for atomic drivers in general. I even thought
we have it already somewhere ...

drm_simple_kms_panel_connector is toooooooooooo long ;-) What about just
drm_panel_connector instead? Also not entirely sure whether this is best
placed here, or better in drm_panel.c, or maybe even in a new
drm_panel_helper.c.

Imo drm_panel_connector and drm_simple_display_pipe should work as
orthogonal helpers.

Or 3rd option: You just expose the above helpers for detect/get_modes
only.

Above dummy functions shouldn't be necessary.

On 2nd thought maybe we want an atomic_check in here too, with same
parameters *pipe, *crtc_state and *plane_state (so that it's useful for
both plane-only updates and modeset changes).

I could remove .atomic_check, but not .disable and .enable which gave me
NULL pointer errors. I need .enable or .commit, and .disable or .dpms.

I could do this for the plane:

struct drm_simple_display_pipe_funcs {
      void (*plane_check)(struct drm_simple_display_pipe *pipe,
                          struct drm_plane_state *plane_state);
}

static void drm_simple_kms_plane_atomic_check(struct drm_plane *plane,
                                         struct drm_plane_state *state)
{
         struct drm_simple_display_pipe *pipe;

         pipe = container_of(plane, struct drm_simple_display_pipe, plane);
         if (!pipe->funcs || !pipe->funcs->plane_check)
                 return;

         pipe->funcs->plane_check(pipe, state);
}

static const struct drm_plane_helper_funcs 
drm_simple_kms_plane_helper_funcs = {
         .atomic_check = drm_simple_kms_plane_atomic_check,
};

But how should I do crtc_state ?

Hm right. I'm voting that we make them all optional, there's been an
effort all over the place to not force drivers to type in silly dummy
funcs.

Atomic core guarantees that if you have a plane state, then the crtc state
for that plane is always hanging around. You should be able to get at it
(but only for atomic_check functions, there's a different way in the
commit hooks) using:

drm_atomic_get_existing_plane_state(plane_state->state,
				    plane_state->crtc);


Yes I know I should get around to documeting all the structures we have
... Unfortunately it's a bit a mess and I'd like to clean up the code
organization first a bit.

Cheers, Daniel
