[PATCH v3 10/20] drm/plane: Add new atomic_create_state callback

Commit 47b5ac7daa46 ("drm/atomic: Add new atomic_create_state callback
to drm_private_obj") introduced a new pattern for allocating drm object
states.
Instead of relying on the reset() callback, it created a new
atomic_create_state hook. This is helpful because reset is a bit
overloaded: it's used to create the initial software state, reset it,
but also reset the hardware.
It can also be used either at probe time, to create the initial state
and possibly reset the hardware to an expected default, but also during
suspend/resume.
Both these cases come with different expectations too: during the
initialization, we want to initialize all states, but during
suspend/resume, drm_private_states for example are expected to be kept
around.
reset() also isn't fallible, which makes it harder to handle
initialization errors properly. This is only really relevant for some
drivers though, since all the helpers for reset only create a new
state, and don't touch the hardware at all.
It was thus decided to create a new hook that would allocate and
initialize a pristine state without any side effect:
atomic_create_state to untangle a bit some of it, and to separate the
initialization with the actual reset one might need during a
suspend/resume.
Continue the transition to the new pattern with planes.
