Ok good news, I think I have a fix. Bad news it's code used by like 50
drivers, so this will take some time to get reviewed and merged (and I
think almost all these other drivers are buggy too, which is why I decided
to fix the shared code).

Patch below, can you pls confirm this fixes it?

Thanks, Daniel

    drm/atomic-helper: reset vblank on crtc reset
    
    Only when vblanks are supported ofc.
    
    Some drivers do this already, but most unfortunately missed it. This
    opens up bugs after driver load, before the crtc is enabled for the
    first time. syzbot spotted this when loading vkms as a secondary
    output. Given how many drivers are buggy it's best to solve this once
    and for all in shared helper code.
    
    Aside from moving the few existing calls to drm_crtc_vblank_reset into
    helpers (i915 doesn't use helpers, so keeps its own) I think the
    regression risk is minimal: atomic helpers already rely on drivers
    calling drm_crtc_vblank_on/off correctly in their hooks when they
    support vblanks. And driver that's failing to handle vblanks after
    this is missing those calls already, and vblanks could only work by
    accident when enabling a CRTC for the first time right after boot.
    
    FIXME: Fix up drivers and audit them all.
    
    Big thanks to Tetsuo for helping track down what's going wrong here.
