Re: [PATCH 10/10] drm: Use state helper instead of the plane state pointer

Hi Maxime,

Thank you for the patch.

Please don't use the word "current", it's ambiguous. Do you mean old
state or new state ?

Is this relevant ? drm_atomic_helper_swap_state() doesn't change the
old_state and new_state pointers in drm_atomic_state as far as I can
tell.

This seems to imply that you're interested in the new state.

Does this really make things more obvious ?
