Hi Abhinav,

Thank you for the patch.

For some vendor driver implementations, display hardware can
be shared between the encoder used for writeback and the physical
display.

In addition resources such as clocks and interrupts can
also be shared between writeback and the real encoder.

To accommodate such vendor drivers and hardware, allow
real encoder to be passed for drm_writeback_connector.

changes in v6:
        - assign the encoder inside
          drm_writeback_connector_init_with_encoder() for
          better readability
        - improve some documentation for internal encoder

Please split this in two patches, one for the DRM core and one for the
VC4 driver. This applies to most patches as a general rule, with the
main exception being API refactoring that requires changing the
implementation and all its users in a single patch.

I also wanted to do that but that would break compilation of this change because of vc4 (explained below) so I had to club it in this patch.

If you can provide some suggestion on how to address vc4's dependency I can break this up.
