One more I forgot in the other reply: We force-disable non-primary planes.
Hence wm state for those are kinda irrelevant. Again I think it's best to
group all this together with the plane readout/fb reconstruction code, so
that we have all the plane readout logic in one place. I know that we
already need to have the split between modeset readoud and plane
reconstruction, and that's imo bad enough. If possible I'd like if we
don't have to split it further into a separate plane/wm fixup path that's
hiding in the atomic_check code somewhere.
