So as per the offline IRC discussions, - We can check for crtc_state->enable and only use the enabled crtcs in the affected crtc calculation. And this enable would only be set when modeset is done. So in case of bigjoiner no modeset on Pipe A, even if Pipe B is stolen, since no modeset and because that pipe doesnt get enabled the affected crtcs would still be 0x1. This should solve the problem. Ville, Danvet - I will make this change?
