Currently the plane's index is determined by walking the list of all
planes in the mode and finding the position of that plane in the list. A
linear walk, especially a linear walk within a linear walk as frequently
conceived by i915.ko [O(N^2)] quickly comes to dominate profiles.
The plane's index is constant for as long as no earlier planes are
removed from the list. For all drivers, planes are static, determined
at boot and then untouched until shutdown. In fact, there is no locking
provided to allow for dynamic removal of planes/encoders/crtcs.
v2: Convert drm_crtc_index() and drm_encoder_index() as well.
v3: Stop adjusting the indices upon removal; consider the list
construct-only.
