DRM_MODE_REFLECT_X and DRM_MODE_REFLECT_Y meaning seems a bit unclear
to me, so try to clarify that with a bit of ascii graphics.

Changes since v1:
  - Move the ascii graphics in the kerneldoc where all plane
    properties are already documented and make sure it's properly
    rendered, suggestested by Daniel Vetter.

I think that won't properly hyperlink. Bonus if you fix that (kernel-doc
is just normal sphinx text, plus some additional parsing for backwards
compat). Either way:

What does "mirroring" mean? Feels like a circular definition here.

Also the relationship between rotate and reflect is missing from these
docs. The order matters, and I do believe we have it specified in some
comment somewhere. Would be good to include it here as well.

That's why I added the pictures to make it more clear, what
reflect-x/reflect-y means.

That's already explained in the documentation for
drm_plane_create_rotation_property(), which is already referred here.

If you think that stuff should be duplicate here as well, it will have
to be done in another patch, because I already merged this patch in
drm-misc-next.

Sure. Doesn't really answer the quesiton I was asking. I propose just
dropping the ", in the same way as mirroring." part. It provides no
useful information that I can see.

I don't think having multiple different pieces of documentation for the
same thing is a particularly good thing.

I was hopping the picture answers to what exactly mirroring means in
this context, I have nothing against dropping that part from the
description.

How do you propose to group this information?
