If there is a legitimate situation where fb is null which also ultimately leads to a atomic_commit, I guess we should keep the return here...
I think I made a mistake here, fb check should not be removed . As Stefan mentioned, if fb check in fsl_dcu_drm_plane_atomic_check return 0, fsl_dcu_drm_plane_atomic_update will ultimately called, and we'll crash since plane->state->fb is NULL.
I believe you meant "Emil" in the above ;-) But seriously... afaict a fair few drivers do a similar !fb (even !state->crtc) check(s)... which makes me wonder if core DRM isn't the better place for it ? Or perhaps that's intentional as core provides the flexibility for each driver to mangle with the fb between .check and .disable ?
