Subject: [129/129] drm: Only decouple the old_fb from the crtc is we call mode_set*

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Chris Wilson <chris@...is-wilson.co.uk>

commit 356ad3cd616185631235ffb48b3efbf39f9923b3 upstream.

Otherwise when disabling the output we switch to the new fb (which is
likely NULL) and skip the call to mode_set -- leaking driver private
state on the old_fb.
