If crtc is active and primary fb visible, and converted to atomic:
restore_fbdev_mode() ->
drm_mode_plane_set_obj_prop() ->
drm_atomic_helper_plane_set_property() ->
drm_atomic_get_plane_state() ->
drm_atomic_get_crtc_state()
crtc state is part of the state, intel_modeset_pipe_config performs
the initial check if modeset's needed. Lets assume yes:
modeset()
drm_mode_set_config_internal() ->
modeset()
Boom double modeset. :(
The alternative solution is making a atomic version of restore_fbdev_mode,
but that would break drivers that are only partially converted to atomic,
like i915 with i915.nuclear_pageflip=true before the convert to atomic commit.
