[PATCH] drm/atomic: Unconfuse the old_state mess in commmit_tail

I totally butcherd the job on typing the kernel-doc for these, and no
one realized. Noticed by Russell. Maarten has a more complete approach
to this confusion, by making it more explicit what the new/old state
is, instead of this magic switching behaviour.
