If the crtc is being switched on or off then the semantics of computing the timestampe of the next vblank is somewhat ill-defined. And indeed, the code splats with a warning in the timestamp computation code. Specifically it hits the check to make sure that atomic drivers have full set up the timing constants in the drm_vblank structure, and that's just not the case before the crtc is actually on. For robustness it seems best to just not set deadlines for modesets.
