If CRTC is left on but the number of planes goes to 0, PSR is disabled.
Then it is enabled again if the number of planes goes to 1 or more.

If someone calls intel_psr_disable_locked() then in the next flip the code above will indeed enable it again but as PSR takes at least 2 frames to
actually activate after registers are programmed, we are safe. (see PSR2 EDP_PSR2_FRAME_BEFORE_SU and PSR1 psr_compute_idle_frames())

Then on the next async flip, it will exited again and active set to false.

Because of the invalidate frontbuffer rendering cases, we can't keep PSR status in atomic state.
