I might not have been clear in my earlier email. What I meant was that
I didn't expect scalers to be programmed as part of their "owner's"
programming at all. At the moment you seem to be programming them in
the low-level plane programming functions (skl_update_plane and such).
Instead, I had expected a single loop over each scaler at the very end
of the entire commit process, after you're done with the plane
programming functions. The scaler state would already indicate whether
the scaler is supposed to be associated with a plane/crtc (which may or
may not be the same as the previous frame; we don't care) or whether it
is unused and should be programmed to off. So basically you would
wind up programming all of the scaler registers on each atomic commit,
even if they didn't change, but you wouldn't have to worry about whether
the scaler's owner is changing or who is responsible for doing the
programming of that scaler this time around --- basically just treat
scalers as an independent resource that have their own programming step
at the end of processing a CRTC.

The problem is that we're ultimately updating crtc_state from the
'commit' step here, which violates the atomic design. State structures
are supposed to be immutable during the commit phase
