commit 81ee8fb6b5 upstream.
It seems we can not update the crtc scanout address. After disabling
crtc, update to base address do not take effect after crtc being
reenable leading to at least frame being scanout from the old crtc
base address. Disabling crtc display request lead to same behavior.
So after changing the vram address if we don't keep crtc disabled
we will have the GPU trying to read some random system memory address
with some iommu this will broke the crtc engine and will lead to
broken display and iommu error message.
So to avoid this, disable crtc. For flicker less boot we will need
to avoid moving the vram start address.
This patch should also fix :

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
