We didn't have the old state so the pre/post update hooks were comparing
the new value against the value that was mangled by the display core init
to match the actual hw state.

The reason why it bit tgl so hard is that we tend to use two slices
on tgl all the time, whereas on icl we use just the first slice most
of the time.
