>From setup_commit():

 * Completion of the hardware commit step must be signalled using
 * drm_atomic_helper_commit_hw_done(). After this step the driver is not allowed
 * to read or change any permanent software or hardware modeset state. The only
 * exception is state protected by other means than &drm_modeset_lock locks.
 * Only the free standing @state with pointers to the old state structures can
 * be inspected, e.g. to clean up old buffers using
 * drm_atomic_helper_cleanup_planes().

And the hw_done function says pretty much the same thing. :)
