It's not redundant. plane->old_fb is protected by the plane_mutex lock and should be
null before dropping the locks in drm_modeset_backoff(). Else other code will trip
with a WARN_ON(plane->old_fb != NULL);

Before sending any more patches I would strongly suggest setting
CONFIG_DEBUG_WW_MUTEX_SLOWPATH and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING in your kernel, and try to
run the IGT testsuite.
