Hmm. I guess we can ignore the cursor then. It's generally pretty
small, so probably no huge benefit from using IPS with cursor only
anyway.

I think it should be caught by CRCs, if we have any that capture
CRCs across plane enable/disable.

Except, there is a problem on ilk-ivb at least, maybe it went all
the way to bdw. IIRC when I last tried a test like that the CRC for
a black primary plane didn't match the CRC for no planes. And I think I
tried to eliminate gamma/csc as the source of the discrepancy without
success. Also IIRC there was always a single frame with an even stranger
CRC just after turning off the last plane.
