Hi Jyri,

Thank you for the patch.

Sorry for the breakage.

The drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() helper documentation states

 * Unless otherwise needed, drivers are advised to set the ACTIVE_ONLY flag in
 * @flags in order not to receive plane update notifications related to a
 * disabled CRTC. This avoids the need to manually ignore plane updates in
 * driver code when the driver and/or hardware can't or just don't need to
 * deal with updates on disabled CRTCs, for example when supporting runtime
 * PM.

I wonder what this implies when CRTCs are being disabled. I see very few cases 
where the hardware wouldn't need the plane atomic disable operation being 
called when a plane is being disabled due to its CRTC being disabled. Maybe 
this should thus be addressed in the core. Daniel, any comment on this ?
