Hi Liviu:

Colin's code is right.

Following code I copied from linux-next, and I checked drm-misc, the
code are same. 

        struct komeda_pipeline *slave  = kcrtc->slave;
//---- First initialization.
        struct completion *disable_done = &crtc->state->commit->flip_done;
        bool needs_phase2 = false;

        DRM_DEBUG_ATOMIC("CRTC%d_DISABLE: active_pipes: 0x%x, affected: 0x%x\n",
                         drm_crtc_index(crtc),
                         old_st->active_pipes, old_st->affected_pipes);

        if (slave && has_bit(slave->id, old_st->active_pipes))
                komeda_pipeline_disable(slave, old->state);

        if (has_bit(master->id, old_st->active_pipes))
                needs_phase2 = komeda_pipeline_disable(master, old->state);

//---- Secondary initialization.
        disable_done = (needs_phase2 || crtc->state->active) ?
                       NULL : &crtc->state->commit->flip_done;

//--- First using is here.
        /* wait phase 1 disable done */
        komeda_crtc_flush_and_wait_for_flip_done(kcrtc, disable_done);

So the first initialization with the delcaration is unnecessary.

And I also checked our internal testing branch which actually doesn't have
the first initialization. seems somethings wrong when lowry submit this to
upstream.

Hi Colin:

Thanks for the fix. I'll push it to drm-misc-fixes
