Some comments for polish and race avoidance below, but looks sane overall.

Imo use the normal function here instead of open-coding and also grab a
reference for the else case. Then drop the acquired reference again later
on.
Actually I think we should extract just the parts we need from addfb2 and
directly return the drm_framebuffer *, reference included - jumping
through this lookup indirection looks fraught with races since userspace
could sneak in and rip it out from underneath you.
So the sequence would be:
1. Call ->fb_create directly.
2. Grab additional reference so the fb doesn't disappear.
3. Register fb in the idr (could be extracted from addfb2), this will take
one of the references.
1.-3. alternate for !BO: Just grab reference to crtc->cursor->fb.
4. Call into cursor->set_plane.
5. Drop temporary reference to fb.

You need to (temporarily) grab the crtc->mutex lock here to read
crtc->cursor->fb and acquire the reference. Otherwise racing userspace
might remove the fb while this function runs. This locking is only
required in the else branch here.

We might want to store the new hot_x/y positions in the crtc too before
calling setplane. Otoh that can wait until we have a cursor plane enabled
driver that needs it.

I think a setplane_internal which directly takes the struct
drm_framebuffer *fb would be much better. We could extract that from the
setplane ioctl function if we first unify the !fb path with the normal
one.
