It's balanced, but has a reference not from the atomic code path, ie.
from creation.
So this is actually:
fb1 pin, refcount=2, b1 unpin refcount=1

There isn't any pin/ref on fb2 during the slow update. The pin/ref
happens during a prepare_fb call - which is *always* called on
new_plane_state. So the state looks like this in commit tail:
old_plane_state->fb = fb2
new_plane_state->fb = fb1
Then at the end during cleanup planes, cleanup_fb is called on
old_plane_state (fb2).
