Yup. And I wanted to forever add some glue so that drivers could share the
same validation logic between mode_fixup (for modesets) and mode_valid
(for probing). But never came up with a helper scaffolding that looked
satisfactory. The icky bit is that mode_fixup wants an adjusted mode, and
we'd need to fake that somehow to reuse the same code in mode_valid. It's
even worse for atomic, where atomic_check (the new mode_fixup) gets an
entire atomic state. But I still think for simpler hw (anything which
doesn't have funny crtc/encoder specific restrictions) we should be able
to create something that just works.
