Tried that branch.

No timeouts. Yay!

But it seems crtcs can be (temporarely) disabled now, so we might have
to pick up the crtc from old_state in virtio_gpu_plane_atomic_update to
figure which virtual output needs to be turned off. Ran into this last
week already. Happened with multihead setups only, but the same patch
fixes this one too ;)
