"tegra_dc_set_base" only updates the frame buffer start address to dc
registers. I think this is not enough because it's possible that this
new FB may trigger a full modeset while not just a fb change. For
example, the "bpp" of the new FB differs from current setting in dc
register.

So I suggest to trigger a full modeset here(although it's slower than fb
change) or maybe you can explain why the FB change is enough.
