The requirement to handle out of bounds plane coordinates correctly
was always there even before the helper existed. It's just that most
people who wrote new drivers neglected to read the reference code (i915).
Granted, it would be better to have actual documentation, and now that
we have the clipped coordinates in the core state and we have some
helpers we should have a sensible place for said documentation as well.

state->src and state->dst

Well, that's assuming that you can't directly feed negative/large
coordinates to your hardware.
