Instead of modifying these function interfaces, it might be even better 
to introduce a state flag in struct drm_plane_state that you can modify 
in the plane's atomic_check helper. Something simple like this:

   if (old_fb != new_fb)
     plane_state->ignore_damage_clips = true;

in the affected drivers/planes. In drm_atomic_helper_damage_iter_init() 
you can use it to generate a full update. This avoids the churn and is 
in line with the overall check/commit design of the DRM framework.
