Okay, thanks to Jani setting up his machine so that I can debug
remotely, I think I understand where we're going wrong now.  The missing
piece of the puzzle is that Jani's display is 3840x2160.  That means the
BIOS FB we need to inherit is deemed too large by our initial hardware
readout code (i.e., greater than half of
dev_priv->gtt.stolen_usable_size), so we don't even bother inheriting
the FB and pstate->fb stays NULL, even though pstate->visible = true and
the plane is part of the CRTC's plane_mask.

Adding Maarten, Ville, and Ander to Cc since I think they may have some
insights on how best to handle this.  Seems like our options are:
 * If our watermark code comes up with a NULL FB while pstate->visible,
   just pretend we're working on a 32-bit framebuffer that matches the
   CRTC mode dimensions.  We'll then calculate appropriate watermark
   values, even though we don't have any real information for the FB
   that the hardware is scanning out of.
 * Set pstate->visible = false and clear the bit from plane_mask.  I
   think we'll run into state verification warnings then ("plane A
   should be disabled but is not") since our HW state and SW state don't
   match.
 * Actually turn off the primary plane (hardware-wise) if we fail to
   inherit the BIOS FB.

Seems like the first option may be the simplest.   Thoughts?  Anything
I'm overlooking?
