You're reasoning is correct, but we need to keep smooth transitioning in
mind for driver coming from crtc helpers. And since those use
->mode_set(_nofb) all over the place it's imo better to keep this. At
least until we've run out of drivers to convert ;-)
We could add a DRM_INFO_ONCE though to remind drivers that they're using
deprecated hooks and should convert over. I plan to submit such a patch at
least for dpms/prepare/commit, maybe we could throw in ->mode_set into the
mix too.

Merged the entire series to drm-misc, thanks for the feedback.
