I've looked through the patches, and didn't spot any place where we
couldn't just get at the full crtc state. Might need some crtc->state
dereferencing and upcasting and making sure stuff is ordered correctly
with enable/disable paths of crtc, but nothing to jump over.

Was this maybe predating the switch of the vblank callbacks over from
drm_driver to drm_crtc_funcs, and in the former it's indeed not
super-obvious that you can just look at the crtc? Anyway, didn't look
like it needs private flags at all from a quick scan.
