Some drivers cannot work with the current design where the connector
is embedded within the drm_writeback_connector such as intel and
some drivers that can get it working end up adding a lot of checks
all around the code to check if it's a writeback conenctor or not.
This is due to the inheritance limitation in C.
This series intends to solve it by moving the drm_writeback_connector
within the drm_connector and remove the drm_connector base which was in
drm_writeback_connector. This is done in union with hdmi connector
within drm_connector to save memory and since drm_connector cannot be
both hdmi and writeback it serves is well.
A RFC version was floated and discussion had taken place at [1] which
kicked of this more cleaner series. 
We do all other required modifications that come with these changes
along with addition of new function which returns the drm_connector when
drm_writeback_connector is present.
This series also contains some writeback API cleanups as a consequence
of writeback connector moving into drm_connector
All drivers will be expected to allocate the drm_connector.
This discussion was tiggered from [2] and sits on top of Dmitry's series
see [3].
