We need to move this out of the conn_state. For my v6 on CRTC out fences
I added drm_atomic_set_out_fence_for_crtc() and
drm_atomic_get_out_fence_for_crtc(). See padovan/fences.

I'd do this before this block. At the DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_TEST_ONLY or we
check or we commit. Moreover you should check if out_fences
are not set with TEST_ONLY.
