In intel_legacy_cursor_update(), I see the comment below,

        /*
         * If any parameters change that may affect watermarks,
         * take the slowpath. Only changing fb or position should be
         * in the fastpath.
         */

followed by a bunch of checks on the plane size and fb. My understanding is that
the bug was caused by those assumptions being out of sync with the actual
watermark code. So IMO, a more proper way to fix this would be to have
intel_legacy_cursor_update() call into watermark code to ask if it can proceed
or not, instead of making assumptions of what can cause watermarks to change.

But since the duplicated assumptions were there before, this fix doesn't make
the overall situation any worse.
