Yeah with atomic you have your display mode in drm_crtc_state, which
you're subposed to subclass so that you can have terabytes of private
state. At least in theory :-)

->private_flags was really only useful in pre-atomic drivers.

Maybe if it's one of them five year projects. But anyways, 
with an atomic driver there are certainly better ways to
handle this.

Perhaps the msm team has a WIP which makes use of it ?
