The specs say that DSPASURF is the latch register for updates of the DSPA
registers on gen4 (including 965gm) as well. Presumably the bug is that
we only partially update the DSPA registers prior to the first call to
intel_flush_display_plane() which this papers over by disabling the
update until a valid address is written to DSPASURF. And there is such a
spurious call to intel_enable_plane() prior to us setting a valid
scanout surface:
