In this version, we don't rely on user mode to compare and find out whether a new dmabuf needs to be created. So, some of fields can be removed if user mode thinks they are not interesting any more.

Still cannot figure out what the plane_id stands for in dmabuf case. As it might be needed by region usage, just add it here.
