Properties are uapi like anything else, with all the usual rules
regarding review, testcases, open source userspace ... Furthermore
driver-private kms properties are highly discouraged, over the past
few years we've realized we need to make a serious effort at better
standardizing this stuff.
Again this probably needs multiple pieces to solve this properly:
- To make plane configuration less surprising to userspace you
propably need to virtualize planes, and reorder which logical plane
you map to which physical one dynamically. Instead of exposing a
komeda-specific limitation to userspace and expecting them to dtrt.
I think msm and rcar-du do that already (and others), if you need
people to chat with or example code.
- If this is needed for validation, again ->atomic_print_state and the
infrastructure around that is your friend.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
