ATOMIC PLANE HELPERS(9)

✨ atomic plane helpers ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the atomic plane helpers(9) page from the Kernel API Manual 💅 this is basically the group chat for the functions that the atomic plane helper functions use to implement legacy plane updates — i.e. drm_plane->update_plane and drm_plane->disable_plane 😌✨

and the whole point? these functions let plane updates use the atomic state infrastructure and do plane updates as separate prepare/check/commit/cleanup steps. no cap, that’s the vibe 🎀🫶
