This patch adds a data structure definiton to hold framebuffer windows/planes.
An ioctl number is also added to provide user access
to change window position dynamically.

+ ? ? __u32 win_pos_y; ? ? ? ?/* y-offset from LCD(0,0) where window starts */
+};

Why not allow negative offsets where the left or upper part of the framebuffer
is hidden?

Thanks for pointing it out. Are there drivers which place the overlay
windows such that some part of the window is hidden from being
displayed on the screen?
