[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Disable primary plane if we fail to reconstruct BIOS fb

If we fail to reconstruct the BIOS fb (e.g., because the FB is too
large), we'll be left with plane state that indicates the primary plane
is visible yet has a NULL fb.  This mismatch causes problems later on
(e.g., for the watermark code).  Since we've failed to reconstruct the
BIOS FB, the best solution is to just disable the primary plane and
pretend the BIOS never had it enabled.

Ville indicated that it might also be worth dropping the BIOS FB size test we
have today.  I'm not sure what the status of FBC is today (which I believe is
why we have the size check), so we should probably wait for Paulo to weigh in
on that part and potentially follow up with an additional patch.
