[PATCH 1/2] drm/atomic: fix self-refresh helpers crtc state dereference

From: Rob Clark <robdclark at chromium.org>

drm_self_refresh_helper_update_avg_times() was incorrectly accessing the
new incoming state after drm_atomic_helper_commit_hw_done().  But this
state might have already been superceeded by an !nonblock atomic update
resulting in dereferencing an already free'd crtc_state.

Fixes: d4da4e33341c ("drm: Measure Self Refresh Entry/Exit times to avoid thrashing")

TODO I *think* this will more or less do the right thing.. althought I'm
not 100% sure if, for example, we enter psr in a nonblock commit, and
then leave psr in a !nonblock commit that overtakes the completion of
the nonblock commit.  Not sure if this sort of scenario can happen in
practice.  But not crashing is better than crashing, so I guess we
should either take this patch or rever the self-refresh helpers until
Sean can figure out a better solution.
