Can I shoot this patch down? It's better to add a field 'wm_changed' to the crtc_state,
which gets reset to false for each crtc_state duplication. It's needed for checking if a cs pageflip
can be done for atomic. It would remove the duplication of some checks there.

The other atomic state members will die soon. I already have some patches to achieve that. :)

I'm not sure if an intermediate state is a good idea. Any code that disables a crtc should only be
looking at the old state. pre_plane_update runs all stuff in preparation for disabling planes,
while post_plane_update runs everything needed for enabling planes. So no need to split it up
I think, maybe put in some intermediate watermarks in intel_atomic_state, but no need for a full
crtc_state.

After a modeset disable you should be able to put in any wm value in .crtc_enable because no plane
will be active.
