Makes sense, will do so.

Well caught, I think we need to calculate even invalid values, but set ->enable = false in that case.
That is the only way we can ensure that the wm levels are calculated correctly.
I've sent those as separate patches, so I get a full CI run from them.

[PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Allow preservation of watermarks.
[PATCH 2/2] drm/i915: Only recalculate wm's for planes part of the state, v2.
