Did you mean the NULL checks in this loop inside
drm_atomic_get_private_obj_state()

+       for (i = 0; i < state->num_private_objs; i++)
+               if (obj == state->private_objs[i].obj &&
+                   state->private_objs[i].obj_state)
+                       return state->private_objs[i].obj_state;

and the fact that I am not setting num_private_objs = 0 in
drm_atomic_state_default_clear() ?
