Re: [PATCH v4 0/6] Finally fix watermarks

This is completely untested (and probably horribly broken/buggy), but
here's a quick mockup of the general approach I was thinking for
ensuring DDB & WM's can be updated together while ensuring the
three-step pipe flushing process is honored:

        https://github.com/mattrope/kernel/commits/experimental/lyude_ddb

Basically the idea is to take note of what's happening to the pipe's DDB
allocation (shrinking, growing, unchanged, etc.) during the atomic check
phase; then during the commit phase, we loop over the CRTC's three times
instead of just once, but only operate on a subset of the CRTC's in each
loop.  While operating on each CRTC, the plane, WM, and DDB all get
programmed together and have a single flush for all three.
