Add a helper function to validate the connector configuration received in
the encoder atomic_check by the drivers.
So the drivers don't need to do these common validations themselves.
V2: Move the format verification to a new helper at the drm_atomic_helper.c
(Thomas Zimmermann).
V3: Format check improvements (Leandro Ribeiro).
Minor improvements(Thomas Zimmermann).
V5: Fix some grammar issues in the commit message (André Almeida).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
