It's a bit weird to have both your and Laurent's SoB without a
Co-Developped-By or an authorship from him.
However, using a drm_private_obj shared between CRTC has a gotcha: you
don't have any ordering guarantee between commits if they affect
different CRTCs (and they are non-blocking).
Let's assume we have two subsequent commits, commit1 and commit2, both
non-blocking, and affecting different CRTC, plane and connectors. In
this case, commit1 old private state will be commit0 new private state,
and commit 2 old private state will be commit1 new private state.
If commit2 is executed before commit1, then it will free its old state
when done with it (so commit1 new private state), and will thus result
in an use-after-free when commit1 is ran.
In order to fix this, you should store (and get a reference to) the
drm_crtc_commit in your private state in atomic_commit_setup, and call
drm_crtc_commit_wait on that commit as the first part of your
commit_tail to serialize those commits.
