Well it's right there in skl_watermark.c lines 2618 and 3488! ;D

	/* TODO: Implement vblank synchronized MBUS joining changes */

	/*
	 * TODO: Implement vblank synchronized MBUS joining changes.
	 * Must be properly coordinated with dbuf reprogramming.
	 */

added way back when mbus programming was added in commit f4dc00863226
("drm/i915/adl_p: MBUS programming").

It's not "wrong" per se to do a full modeset, it's just that there's a
gap in handling the fastset with mbus joining changes.
