[PATCH] drm/atomic-helpers: Invoke end_fb_access while owning plane state

Invoke drm_plane_helper_funcs.end_fb_access before
drm_atomic_helper_commit_hw_done(). The latter function hands over
ownership of the plane state to the following commit, which might
free it. Releasing resources in end_fb_access then operates on undefined
state. This bug has been observed with non-blocking commits when they
are being queued up quickly.

Here is an example stack trace from the bug report. The plane state has
been free'd already, so the pages for drm_gem_fb_vunmap() are gone.

For aborted commits, it is still ok to run end_fb_access as part of the
plane's cleanup. Add a test to drm_atomic_helper_cleanup_planes().
