This is wrong. Your next patch makes this no longer necessary.

This comment here is the clue: "... otherwise subsequent commits wont
stall properly". When we remove the drm_crtc_commit from commit_list, the
next commit won't be able to properly stall for flip_done. Hence we must
wait for flip_done before removing it.
But with your new patch we wait for flip_done using
old_crtc_state->commit, and this is indeed no longer necessary.
With the commit message and patch ordering fixed up:
