If that fails, you can return an error there. Store the pointers and the request size in your plane-state structure and fetch them here.  The memory should later be freed in the plane's destroy callback. For an example, see how the ssd130x driver treats a buffer for a similar use case at [1].

You don't allocate struct appletbdrm_plane_state. Instead of this macro, 
you also have to set your own helpers for the plane's .reset and 
.atomic_duplicate_state There's again example code in the ssd130x driver.
