I was planning on submitting a patch that added the old->fb == new->fb 
check for the async check in drm helpers but haven't gotten around to it 
yet. Async update behavior always prepares the new plane fb and cleans 
up the new plane fb, so you end up with a sequence like the following:

- Fast update, fb1 prepare, fb1 cleanup
- Fast update, fb2 prepare, fb2 cleanup
- Slow update, fb1 prepare, fb2 cleanup
- Fast update, fb2 cleanup -> double cleanup, potential use after free

The only driver that still expects to be doing fb changes in their fast 
path is vc4 from what I can tell, but they'd likely run into an issue 
with interleaving fbs as well.

The fast path on i915 skips the async helpers and implements this a lot 
better (even though it ends up grabbing the struct mutex lock) since it 
always calls cleanup on the old plane state like the slow path does. It 
also swaps the old plane state with the new one.

But since async_update is in place it can't do that (the old plane state 
is the existing plane state). There's not a really good way of emulating 
i915 here without changing the whole concept of async update.

I haven't really investigated too much into the gamma stuttering issue, 
but I think it's similar to the cursor update - a high volume of atomic 
updates that ends up skipping over a vblank or two.

The in-place update method can work for us for gamma updates I believe, 
but there's likely a lot more drivers would have to be careful about 
with in-place updates on the CRTC state.

A full state swap on the object itself would probably be best for 
tackling it this way. It's what I'd like to happen for the existing 
plane API at least (and which I think is fine since the plane is locked 
anyway).
