so maybe a:

  const struct drm_xyz_state * drm_atomic_get_xyz_state_ro(...);

which does not create new state, if there is not already one, but
instead just returns the current state for planes that are not being
changed?

might need to be a bit careful about state state pointers if someone
subsequently does drm_atomic_get_xyz_state().. but that shouldn't
normally be the case in the check phase.  If needed there could be
some sanity checking to WARN() on drm_atomic_get_xyz_state() after
drm_atomic_get_xyz_state_ro()
