It is possible that drm_simple_kms_plane_atomic_check called
with no CRTC set, e.g. when user-space application sets CRTC_ID/FB_ID
to 0 before doing any actual drawing. This leads to NULL pointer
dereference because in this case new CRTC state is NULL and must be
checked before accessing.

Hm, this is a bit annoying, since the can_position = false parameter to
drm_atomic_helper_check_plane_state is supposed to catch all this. Would
moving all the checks after the call to that helper, and gating them on
plane_state->visible also work?
Yes, it does work if this is what you mean:

We'd need to add a guarantee to drm_atomic_helper_check_plane_state that
it can cope with crtc_state == NULL, but I think that's a good idea
anyway. Atm it shouldn't end up looking at the crtc_state pointer in that
case.
It doesn't look at it at the moment
Otherwise we'll just go with your fix, but it feels all a bit too fragile,
hence why I want to explore more robust options a bit.
At list with the change above it passes my test which failed
before. Although I cannot confirm it works for others, but it
certainly does for me.

Do you want me to send v1 with the code above?

Thank you,
