+Improve plane atomic_check helpers
+----------------------------------
+
+Aside from the clipped coordinates right above there's a few suboptimal things
+with the current helpers:
+
+- drm_plane_helper_funcs->atomic_check gets called for enabled or disabled
+ planes. At best this seems to confuse drivers, worst it means they blow up
+ when the plane is disabled without the CRTC. The only special handling is
+ resetting values in the plane state structures, which instead should be moved
+ into the drm_plane_funcs->atomic_duplicate_state functions.
+
+- Once that's done, helpers could stop calling ->atomic_check for disabled
+ planes.
+
+- Then we could go through all the drivers and remove the more-or-less confused
+ checks for plane_state->fb and plane_state->crtc.

+Replace drm_detect_hdmi_monitor() with drm_display_info.is_hdmi
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Once EDID is parsed, the monitor HDMI support information is available through
+drm_display_info.is_hdmi. Many drivers still call drm_detect_hdmi_monitor() to
+retrieve the same information, which is less efficient.
+
+Audit each individual driver calling drm_detect_hdmi_monitor() and switch to
+drm_display_info.is_hdmi if applicable.
