Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/gud: fix NULL crtc dereference on display disable
gud_plane_atomic_update() currently handles both crtc state and
framebuffer updates - the complexity has led to a few accidental
NULL pointer dereferences.
Commit dc2d5ddb193e ("drm/gud: fix NULL fb and crtc dereferences
on USB disconnect") [1] fixed an earlier dereference but planes
can also be disabled in non-hotplug paths (e.g. display disables
via the desktop environment). The drm_dev_enter() call would not
cause an early return in those and subsequently oops on
dereferencing crtc:

Split out crtc handling from gud_plane_atomic_update() into
atomic_enable() and atomic_disable() functions to delegate
crtc state transitioning work to the DRM helpers.
To preserve the gud state commit sequence [2], switch to
the runtime PM version of drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail() which
ensures that crtcs are enabled (hence sending the
GUD_REQ_SET_CONTROLLER_ENABLE and GUD_REQ_SET_DISPLAY_ENABLE
requests) before a framebuffer update is sent.
