Unsure if I answered this question but - basically they come in any time
you're dealing with a modesetting object that isn't the subject of the atomic
commit you're in, or any other kind of situation where we can't assume the
Driver* implementation for a given modesetting object.

Some examples:
* RawPlaneState::crtc()
There's no hard association between a CRTC and a Plane, and they can be
mixed and matched so we can't derive the DriverCrtc for the result of this
function. Thus, we need an opaque.
* State iterators
Because drivers can have multiple DriverPlane, DriverEncoder,
DriverConnector and DriverCrtc types we can't assume the implementation for
any of these objects when a user iterates through each modesetting object
in the atomic state. So, another place we need opaque.

So tl;dr most places need Opaque, we just avoid using it wherever we actually
can safely assume the driver implementation.
