The driver does support damage clips, but doesn't advertise it. So when running gnome/wayland on Matrox hardware, the full frame is copied to the slow Matrox memory, which leads to very poor performances. Add drm_plane_enable_fb_damage_clips() to advertise this capability to userspace. With this patch, gnome/wayland becomes usable on Matrox GPU.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
