The code above gets the damage rectangle (i.e., the plane's area that 
needs to be updated). The code below get's the framebuffer area. If they 
don't overlap, return. (I think this can really only fail with the next 
patch in the series, which adds virtual screens.)

And here we check if the updated plane/framebuffer area is actually 
visible on screen; otherwise return. It could be in an area that is 
off-screen. (Again, this probably only fails with the virtual-screen patch.)

I don't think this is all generic enough to be within 
drm_atomic_helper_damage_merged(). But once we have multiple SHMEM-based 
drivers with virtual screens, we can move it into a helper for 
shadow-buffered planes. Your gud driver would be a candidate for this 
feature as well.

Best regards
