Since you already do modeset when changing primary plane I think the much
cleaner solution is to use drm_atomic_helper_disable_planes_on_crtc() and
drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() with flags =
DRM_PLANE_COMMIT_ACTIVE_ONLY or so, with corresponding changes in
atomic_commit_tail. Much cleaner instead of hand-rolling this all in
callbacks.
Note that with atomic helpers it is _very_ much encouraged to throw the
helper structure into the wind and write your own stuff, this thing is
intentionally very modular. This is to avoid incomprehensible drivers that
are forced to hack around the helper midlayer in their callbacks like the
below very much looks like.
