For each iteration of the patches we have swap between two solutions:
- have normalization done between 0 to N-1 without taking care of zpos
property range
- take care of zpos property range while computing normalized zpos
First the solution is the most simple and the more robust so I will
definitively go for it.

I think it will be difficult to mix planes with and without zpos property.
My suggestion is to use immutable zpos property for primary and cursor plane.
drm_atomic_helper_crtc_normalize_zpos() is only called if plane zpos
value change
so if driver don't use it normalization will not be done.

I'm not able to reproduce you problem on my setup with one primary and
two overlay.
When back to 0 to N-1 normalization algo you should see the problem anymore
