Meh, I've been fairly dense the entire time. This is indeed the
root-cause, with the twist that we're allowing the impossible:
Essentially we take away the panel fitter from pipe B to pipe A while
it is strictly still in use by pipe B for VGA. Currently no idea how
to properly fix this in a not too intrusive way.

The other issue is that the encoders connected to pipe B change in the
first modeset, but that's not reflected in the pipe masks.
