Right, but it needs that crtc_disable calls plane_disable in exynos
driver internally. Because crtc is disabled before plane is disabled,
it means plane_disable just returns without any register changes,
then we cannot be sure setting register to disable plane when crtc is
disable.
I think a solution is enough only to eliminate calling xxx_resume
function in exynos driver function when enable plane, we can remove it
because it's called to enable plane from drm atomic modeset framework.
