If the crtc is turned off, enabled = false and the primary plane is not in crtc_state->plane_mask.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Visibility is ignored in this check, that part is handled in plane check that the framebuffer has to span the entire crtc if enabled.
