Not all writeback connector implementations might want to commit things from the connector driver. Some, like the malidp driver, commit things from their main commit_tail() function, and would rather not have to implement a dummy hook for drm_connector_helper_funcs.atomic_commit().
Make this function optional and reflect this fact in the doc.
