Atomic drivers may set properties like rotation on the same fb, which may require a call to prepare_fb even when framebuffer stays identical.
Instead of handling all the special cases in the core, let the driver decide when prepare_fb and cleanup_fb are noops.

I think this makes sense, but would be really good to get a pile of acks from driver maintainers on this one. Rob, Eric, Laurent, others?
This is all very nice, but it will introduce at least a performance regression, and possibly worse, until drivers get updated. There are 7 drivers implementing the .prepare_fb() callback (plus a bunch of drivers that probably should use drm_fb_cma_prepare_fb() but don't at the moment). I can't ack this patch before they get fixed.
