More symbols would be nice.

With the transitional helpers when crtc_state == NULL you don't want to update the scalers or funny things happen.
Fix is probably something like this:

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c
index ba9321998a41..830e07b23a15 100644
--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c
+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c

 	if (ret)

+	if (crtc_state ? crtc_state->base.active || crtc->state->active) {
 		struct intel_plane_state *old_state =
 			to_intel_plane_state(plane->state);
