It wouldn't, but when we add iterator types for going through all of the
crtcs, planes, connectors, etc. in an atomic state those iterators are going
to return types containing Opaque types by default.

I haven't finished writing up all the code for this yet but an iterator for
say, new/old states for a CRTC would look like this:

struct AtomicCrtcStateUpdate<'a, T: FromRawCrtcState> {
    crtc: &'a T::Crtc,
    old_state: &'a T,
    new_state: BorrowedCrtcState<'a, T>,
}

Where the driver then can "upcast" the entire type like this:

let (crtc, old, new) = state_update.upcast::<CrtcState<DriverCrtc>>()?.get();

Since we can't really know what DriverCrtc belongs to each Crtc without having
the caller try to perform an upcast.

Yeah I wasn't sure about this, I got the impression that the way of doing this
typically was to link to the header where the structure is defined instead of
the bindings:: equivalent from some of the other code around the kernel that
I've seen.
