Hi Mark,

what's the rationale for this?

Disabling a CRTC as in [0] will cause mode_fixup() to be called with
an empty mode, failing that test.

Removing the check seems to get things working fine for a short while,
but a later modeset invariably gets the VOP to hang (as reported by
[1]).

Do you know why that check was put in place and what exactly could be
causing the hw to hang?

Thanks,
