Do we have igts which exercise this functionality? Having that is
kinda the point of enabling this first only for non-bootup modesets,
so that we can weed out the bugs. I think most (maybe even all) igts
we have do their modesets by explicitly shutting things down, and so
will never hit this. But we have lots of igts, so might have missed
some.

Anyway, patch imo should have a clear indication which igts we need to
watch out for this one here.
