Hi Seung-Woo,

I do not see why the maximum MIXER resolution matters for choosing
between offsetting BASE or using SXY.

Let's say you have one big 1920x1908 framebuffer, with a span of 1920,
starting at dma_addr (there is no extra padding at the end of the
line).
Let's say you wanted the mixer to scan out 1920x1080 pixels starting
from (0, 800) in the framebuffer, and start drawing them at (0,0) on
the screen.

What we currently do is:
  BASE = dma_addr + (800 * 1080 * 4)
  SPAN = 1920
  SXY = SX(0) | SY(0)
  WH = W(1920) | H(1080)
  DXY = DX(0) | DY(0)

I am proposing we do:
  BASE = dma_addr
  SPAN = 1920
  SXY = SX(0) | SY(800)
  WH = W(1920) | H(1080)
  DXY = DX(0) | DY(0)

In both cases, the mixer resolution is 1920x1080.

My motivation for wanting to program an un-modified dma_addr into BASE
is so we can then just check BASE_S to determine from which buffer the
mixer is actively being scanned out without worrying about the source
offset, since the source offset can change for a given framebuffer
(for example, when doing panning, or if an overlay is used for a HW
cursor).
