Other way round, because what we stuff into the drm must be limited by
fb->height/width/pitches. If fbinfo->var.x/yres is wrong, then that's a
pontential problem.

This is already what's happening. Which is why looking at fbinfo->var is
risky (it can change and doesn't have a strict relationship to the reality
on the drm modeset side). Whereas drm_fb data is fixed, and is always
correct.

Note that it's not a problem when part of our damage clip is not visible,
the drm drivers take care of that. The only thing we must ensure is that
the damage rects are within the drm_framebuffer coodrinations.

The other thing I just realized is that we also allow changing
fbinfo->var.x/yoffset. Which means just checking against info->var.x/yres
is wrong when the buffer is panned. If we instead just check against
drm_framebuffer coordinations then we don't have that issue.

Also on this topic, there's als fb->offset[0]. If that's not zero, we
again have the issue that we limit the damage rect to the wrong area, but
luckily that's always zero. Would still be good to put a

	WARN_ON_ONCE(fb->offsets[0] != 0);

in the code to document that assumption.

Can you please respin v3 with all that?
