Boris Brezillon 9a45d33cdf drm/atmel-hlcdc: Simplify the HLCDC layer logic
An HLCDC layers in Atmel's nomenclature is either a DRM plane or a 'Post
Processing Layer' which can be used to output the results of the HLCDC
composition in a memory buffer.

atmel_hlcdc_layer.c was designed to be generic enough to be re-usable in
both cases, but we're not exposing the post-processing layer yet, and
even if we were, I'm not sure the code would provide the necessary tools
to manipulate this kind of layer.

Moreover, the code in atmel_hlcdc_{plane,layer}.c was designed before the
atomic modesetting API, and was trying solve the
check-setting/commit-if-ok/rollback-otherwise problem, which is now
entirely solved by the existing core infrastructure.

And finally, the code in atmel_hlcdc_layer.c is over-complicated compared
to what we really need. This rework is a good excuse to simplify it. Note
that this rework solves an existing resource leak (leading to a -EBUSY
error) which I failed to clearly identify.
