On a system I'm doing development on I found a crash. The crawl looked like:

I found that I could fix the crash by checking connector->state against NULL. This isn't code I'm familiar with and I didn't dig too deep, so I'd appreciate any opinions about whether this is a sane thing to do. Note that I don't actually have graphics up on my system at the moment, so perhaps this is all just a symptom of the strange state I'm in.

This is a driver bug - under atomic the assumption is that there is _always_ a current software state. Most driver set up the initial "everything off" state in the ->reset functions.
Ah, I see what the problem is. It looks like the main Rockchip subsystem moved to atomic but the patch to support that in dw_hdmi never landed. If I pick https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7868951/ then my crash goes away. :)
In case it's not obvious, please consider $SUBJECT patch abandoned. Thanks!
Argh. ...or the needed patch landed but I didn't pick it back in my backport. Even dumber. :(
