Driver has another struct which is super-set of these fields. Yes, we can move 
all these fields into struct vfio_device_query_gfx_plane. Also, we can remove 
some of these fields which may seem useless for user mode.

I cannot figure out the mean of plane_id either. If I remember correctly, it 
was asked by region usage. Of course, if no one needs it, I'd like to remove it.
Thanks.
