As I wrote, num_dspps should be filled correctly (by the 
dpu_get_topology) to request DSPP for CTM-enabled CRTCs and to set the 
field to 0 if CRTC doesn't have CTM enabled.

Then RM code should adhere to the num_dspps passed. It must return an 
error if it can not fulfil the requirements. Also if no DSPPs are 
requested, RM should prefer non-DSPP-enabled LMs.
