Ah, you're right.  We're not in the middle of an atomic operation, so we
only have a plane_state and not a top-level drm_atomic_state to work
with.

I think what you have here should be fine.

Okay, that looks good to me.

I think the only thing we need to close on is Ville's concern about the
plane winding up with non-NULL fb and crtc pointers even though a crazy
firmware or bootloader somehow left the plane turned off.  I'm not super
familiar with the fastboot stuff, but maybe our
get_initial_plane_config() calls need a test to ensure the plane is
actually turned on before they start trying to read out the FB base and
such?
