drm_hwcomposer: Propagate PlanStage error All existing stage planers(PlanStageGreedy, PlanStageProtected, PlanStageHiSi) silently ignore if they couldn't allocate a drmplane for a drmhwclayer and return success. That doesn't go well with the assumptions from ValidateDisplay, where if the atomic check succeeds we just assume that we could do Device composition for a maximum of num_of_drm_planes layers. But, since we silently dropped some drmhwclayer we never put those in the atomic check and we won't put it in the final atomic commit, so we end up with a wrong composition on the screen. What this proposes is propagating the error, which will make ValidateDisplay to fallback on client composition. Signed-off-by: Alexandru Gheorghe <alexandru-cosmin.gheorghe@arm.com>
