Yes, you are correct.

It is indeed. I forgot about that. So what I would do for now is just to
allocate the two unconditionally and then we can optimize as a follow-up.
But also, this v2 is not correct because as I mentioned the device and
drm_device lifecycles are not the same and the kernel crashes on poweroff:

Sima also suggested to make the allocation in the plane .prepare_fb, I
think that the better place is .begin_fb_access for allocation and the
.end_fb_access for free.
Updated patch below and this is the one that I'm more comfortable now
as a solution:

Subject: [PATCH v3] drm/ssd130x: Fix an oops when attempting to update a
disabled plane
Geert reports that the following NULL pointer dereference happens for him
after commit 49d7d581ceaf ("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each
plane update"):
[drm] Initialized ssd130x 1.0.0 20220131 for 0-003c on minor 0

The problem is that fbcon calls fbcon_init() which triggers a DRM modeset
and this leads to drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() attempting to commit
the atomic state for all planes, even the ones whose CRTC is not enabled.
Since the primary plane buffer is allocated in the encoder .atomic_enable
callback, this happens after that initial modeset commit and leads to the
mentioned NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by allocating the buffers in the struct drm_plane_helper_funcs
.begin_fb_access callback and free them in to .end_fb_access callback,
instead of doing it when the encoder is enabled.
Fixes: commit 49d7d581ceaf ("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each plane update")

Changes in v3:
- Move the buffers allocation to the plane helper funcs .begin_fb_access
and the free to .end_fb_access callbacks.
- Always allocate intermediate buffer because is use in ssd130x_clear_screen().
- Don't allocate the buffers as device managed resources.
Changes in v2:
- Move the buffers allocation to .fb_create instead of preventing atomic
updates for disable planes.
- Don't allocate the intermediate buffer when using the native R1 format.
- Allocate buffers as device managed resources.
