drm_rect is about struct drm_rect, this here is struct drm_clip_rect. I
think fixing this up is a lot bigger patch series, and we've postponed it
already with the dirtyfb trakcing patches for the fbdev helpers. I think
postponing once more is ok.

So this is a bit an unpopular opinion with some folks, but I don't require
anyone to submit new code to subsystems outside of drm for new drivers.
Simply because it takes months to get stuff landed, and in general it's
not worth the trouble.

We have piles of stuff in drm and drm drivers that should be in core but
isn't.

Imo the only reasonable way is to merge as-is, then follow-up with a patch
series to move the helper into the right subsystem. Most often
unfortunately that follow-up patch series will just die.
