I haven't fully dug into the details here, but a few randome comments:
- While transitioning we're calling the transitional plane helpers, which
  should call the atomic_check stuff for us on the primary plane. If we
  need to call atomic_check on other planes too (why?) then I think that
  should be done as close as possible to where we do that for the primary
  one. Since eventually we need to unbury that call again.

- I don't like frobbing state objects which are committed (i.e. updating
  visible like here), they're supposed to be invariant. With proper atomic
  the way to deal with that is to grab all the required plane states and
  put them into the drm_atomic_state update structure.

- My idea for resolving our current nesting issues with
  enable/disable_planes functions was two parts: a) open-code a hardcoded
  disable-all-planes function by just calling plane disable code
  unconditionally. Iirc there's been patches once somewhere to do that
  split in i915 (maybe I'm dreaming), but this use-case is also why I
  added the atomic_plane_disable hook. b) on restore we just do a normal
  plane commit with the unchanged plane states, they should all still
  work.

btw if we wire up the atomic_disable_plane hook then we can rip out
intel_plane_atomic_update. The "don't disable twice" check is already done
by the helpers in that case.

I'll grab some coffee and see what's all wrong with my ideas here now, but
please bring in critique too ;-)

Cheers, Daniel
