Hi Daniel,

Thank you for the patch.

I think we should go one step further and remove .mode_set() completely for 
drivers converted to atomic updates. There are two cases to consider:

- Drivers that implement runtime PM can't use the .mode_set() callback for the 
reason explained above. Those drivers will thus not implement .mode_set() and 
will perform mode setting related hardware configuration in .enable().

- Drivers that don't implement runtime PM (we probably want to discourage this 
globally, but that's a different topic) can use the .mode_set() callbacks, but 
they could equally well perform mode setting in .enable() as the runtime PM-
enabled drivers, without any drawback.

To increase consistency, I thus believe we should get rid of .mode_set() 
completely for drivers converted to atomic updates.

However, this patch is good as a first step, so if you want to apply it 
already,
