This series breaks on kms_atomic_transition.plane-all-transition (just uploaded the changed tests to igt, please rebuild)

[ 5455.543871] [drm:verify_wm_state.isra.72 [i915]] *ERROR* mismatch in DDB state pipe A plane 1 (expected (0,0), found (0,860))

There's also a WARN_ON(... && total_data_rate == 0) which you need to comment out for the tests to pass cleanly.
