tbh I have no idea yet how we should best handle this and the following
patch. My current guess is that we need a special pipe_update path, which
sits in between the fb_update and the full modeset we currently have. A
bunch of things we might want to do in that case:
- kill the vga plane
- update watermarks to our (hopefully power-efficient) ones
- adjust pfit state (the bios tends to enable that even on non-lvds/edp
  outputs)
- update other/global pm state (power well, refclocks, ...)
- update infoframes/audio bits (not relevant for panels luckily)

Of course I'd prefer if the code is somehow shared between the update_pipe
path and the full modeset, since we'll inevitably get something wrong ...
