I think arcpgu is the perfect example of a small driver that _really_
wants to use drm_simple_display_pipe_helper. Which would address the
outright lack of any and all atomic_check code (beyond basic mode
validation through mode_valid).

I also just noticed that it still has a bunch of the legacy hooks set,
e.g. mode_set, mode_set_base are all no longer used in atomic.

I think the code won't be able to oops, since if there's no fb, we don't
enable the plane (and it happily allows that), so should be all
non-oopsing. Even with this check here removed.

Ofc the hw might get pissed at us in this case, but I can't tell that.
Like I said, conversion to drm_simple_display_pipe_helper is probably the
way to go.

Anyway, this patch here looks good, if you adjust the commit message to
explain why it can't oops:
