* implement &drm_crtc_funcs.set_crc_source and &drm_crtc_funcs.verify_crc_source.

* need to be captured in the driver by calling drm_crtc_add_crc_entry().
+ * Depending on the driver and HW requirements, &drm_crtc_funcs.set_crc_source
+ * may result in a commit (even a full modeset).

+ * CRC generation, then the driver must mark that commit as a full modeset
+ * (drm_atomic_crtc_needs_modeset() should return true). As a result, to ensure
+ * consistent results, generic userspace must re-setup CRC generation after a
+ * legacy SETCRTC or an atomic commit with DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_ALLOW_MODESET.
