intel_crtc->active shouldn't be used anywhere in state computation code.
The only thing you're allowed to look at is crtc_state->enable in the
atomic world.

Otherwise resource allocation isn't properly done when the pipe is in dpms
off state and then stuff blows up when userspace tries to dpms on. Which
is a big no-no, at least for proper backwards compat.
